[mrthen1]

[iddtelyoubut]

Why do you pluck like you do in the begining?

[sk8ter503]

ohhh yeahhhhh!!!!!! got that same bass!!!! wat kinda pick ups you got bro?

[chjohnst]

how do you like using flatwounds over roundwounds? I just got a new fender tonight (used) that came with SS and I am thinking of going with a set flatwounds on it -- just love this burpy tone.

[floggingmollyla]

hey, hmm flatwounds sound 'deeper' and 'smoother' I dunno lol. Tough to get a decent slap tone out of those though.

you're gonna have to work harder in the fretting department but its worth it.

[chjohnst]

I am assuming you mean flats are harder to fret? I have only used round wounds in my bass playing days, so curious on what I should expect aside from the tone.

[floggingmollyla]

Ah well, I can get more detailed if you'd like.

Yes correct, basically my left hand is working slightly harder with flats. But theres a' nothin' u can't get used to.

flatwounds eliminate finger squeak when you slide across frets.

and these bastards last a loooong time, definitely worth the price for them imo.

good luck with it!

Cool, I was checking out d'addorios chromes I read they are little brighter sounding but still have the flatwound thump. From my understanding flea used flatwounds on the stadium arcadium album and I am chasing that tone.

I dont do much slap wankin' these days, used to quite a bit but gets kind of overplayed with my band. Prefer more finger style grooves.

[chjohnst]

I got the chromes on my Fender American Deluxe now, very different sound over the SS strings I had on there previously. Will be doing some recordings Tuesday to see how they cut through the mix. Thx for the advice!
