Road Toad Pahoehoe U-Bass strings
These are interesting strings and produce a sound much like that of an upright bass. They're very stretchy but curiously work and sound well, and they actually make the U-Bass fun to play.
The original U•BASS® strings, the Road Toad Pahoehoe U•BASS® Strings are Kala's signature, light tension "black rubber" strings: a proprietary polyurethane blend that gives your U•BASS® a distinctly round tone with a huge amount of low-end.
These Road Toad Pahoehoe U•BASS® Strings are recommended for players in search of an upright tone with a great deal of flexibility and maneuverability. Available in 4-Strings and 5-String sets:
*For use on Round Wound U•BASS® setups, the instrument will need a new, compatible nut to accommodate these strings. A nut swap should be performed by an experienced instrument technician.
**Modifications performed by the user will void the manufacturer warranty. Please also note that Kala is not responsible for damages to instruments caused by new string installments.

I don't don't know the science behind these strings, but they work awesome!
This is my third set of Pahoehoe strings and I prefer them over the Thunderguts strings. I have the Rumble U-bass and the Journeyman U-bass and my favorite to play is the Rumble.
Good transaction and good sound.
