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...

I love the feel of these flatwound strings.

They're not stickey!😊

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

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.
