Kala Flatwound 4-String Set by Gallistrings

As much as I liked the original "rubber" strings that come with the U-bass.... the addition of the Flatwounds have made the U-bass even better. With the flatwounds you can get a much more percussive sound when you want but can also be played softly for a warm softer sound. I run my U-bass through a Fender Rumble 40 and it sounds wonderful. I can get a real sounding electric bass sound to the woody sound of a dog-house. Thanks for a great product.

The flatwounds feel like real strings, unlike the stock rubber strings, but the tension is much higher. Gone is the comfortable looseness of a short scale instrument. If only we could have a happy medium...

Love these strings. Much better than the rubber strings. Nice fat gauge. Feel great. Sound great (nice acoustic sound on HB uke). Treat yourself.

I love the feel of these flatwound strings.

They're not stickey!😊

Have put these on my solid mahogany ubass and it has turned it into a complete delight to play.

I have also put them on a magic fluke timber bass that usually comes with roundwounds and they have turned it into a tone monster and the intonation is spot on and better than the original strings. Almost every sound from upright to p-bass is available just by changing right hand technique.

So pleased.
