npub1fqj9zee98wnx8u6p24a49l0wu0mgxk92rxn2yyvmq66va8qjw9mqqha5tz (npub1fqj…a5tz) My first thought is that no electric (or hollow body electric-acoustic) bass guitar can ever sound like an upright bass.
In my experience flat wound strings have an interesting texture and will chew up the fretboard more slowly. On the other hand, the sets I’ve used went lifeless more quickly than round or semi-round.
I don’t know if I believe in objectively superior flatwounds, but I never sought them.
Half of my releases are recorded with a modified G&L L2000 fretless bass.
