I just put some Obligatos on the Q bass. It has been strung with Spirocores because I love them for growl, playing jazz. But it is Quinn's bass (my 14 y/O son whom I built the bass for), and he was trying to play Mozzart with those spiros and I realized how selfish I had been. So I changed them.
They bow much easier and I can notice how much easier it is to get the string started with these compared to Spiros. And they don't sound too bad pizz style. The wolf on the A string went away also and I don't need the brass wolf eliminator.
So for so good.
