Fantastic soft attack acoustic sound
These bass strings are fantastic for people who try to get a very soft attack, quick decay, warm sound. It gives a vibe that sounds between a classical guitar and a double bass, very interesting and expressive.
Three caveats:
- The strings are slack and roll under the (picking) fingers. It needs some time to adjust.
- You need a piezo, as they won't word for magnetic pickup
- Because of the low tension, they produce a quieter sound.
Pros (why I cannot use anything else on my acoustic bass)
- the sound is unique, soft, acoustic, doublebass-y, lush, rich.
- the strings are consistent between sizes, and between sets

Bright, full bodied sound and easy to the touch
Bought these strings to replace the stock ones that came with my acoustic roundback. What an improvement! The nylon core makes them so much easier to play, while the sound is even more contra-bass like. This guitar now earned a permanent spot in the living room, and gets grabbed whenever I want to play along without setting up an amp. with amp, the sound is even more impressive than with 'normal' strings: deeper lows, but with a pleasant range of rich overtones.
