Galli G77-4 Black Nylon Tapewound Electric Bass Strings, 55-115

Strings are great quality. No issues with that at all. I’m not of fan of this gauge I think is my issue. I’ve been experimenting with tapewounds and these feel a little cumbersome coming from 105 daddarios. The E does a lot of smacking the fretboard and I’m not a fan of of the feel. But I think a lower gauge could be an option. I would definitely buy this brand again. My issues are not a result of anything the company did. Simply my tastes and preferences did not match with these strings.

Thanks these Black Tapewound Bass Strings got my Acoustic Fretless Bass Together. Thanks.

These have just the right amount of stiffness for the plucking hand to maintain positive control, while still being super easy to press down with the fretting hand. With the right technique you can get some nice upright-ish bloom, especially on the E-string. One minor gripe is that the thickness of the E-string, with the addition of silk at the ball end, makes it hard to pull that portion through the hole on a vintage style bridge. You really gotta tug at it. That's not really the string's fault though......that can happen with any large-gauge string.

Not impressed. Lots of fretboard clack like almost every other tapewound bass string.
