Particularly good on fretless bass (but also well-suited for jazz, dub, and reggae on fretted instruments), the Tru Bass 88 black nylon flatwound bass strings can be heard on such famous albums as the Beatles' Abbey Road and Lou Reed's Transformer. Tonally, the sound is similar to that of an acoustic upright bass, with a smooth feel and extremely low tension. Add a new dimension to you tonal palette with Rotosound's Tru Bass 88s!

These things are smooth to play they sound great. Makes playing a pleaser

Sweetwater ALWAYS exceeds my expectation in sales, customer service and knowledge on the gear being sold to me. Sweetwater is my #1 choice to buy equipment from the first time I ordered. I find of great value the fact that I don't feel like one more customer, rather THE customer.
