Still looking for the right string, I feel like I'll never be satisfied.
I've tried:
Gibson/Epiphone stock strings - Actually liked these quite a bit but short life
Rotosound SH77 Steve Harris - I loved Roto flats on my Casady bass and I liked these too, but they get sticky and rug-burn your fingers bad. The heavy gauge was also unnecessary.
Ernie Ball Medium Slinkys - Needed a cheap set and Slinkys are always handy. They're not bad strings, just blah. I have no opinion.
DR Hi-Beams (Steel) - The last time I'll try roundwound steels. The low-end felt really sterile even though the highs really sang.
S.I.T. Powerwounds (Nickel) - Liked these a lot. Balanced tone, long life, cheap for a set ($20)
GHS Precision Flatwounds - Current set. The D and the G string are really awesome; that nice muted flatwound tone. But the the bottom two are just terrible. Totally without definition, no life. These have got to go.
Well, what should I try next? The search continues
