Would it be better (read : easyer to play) to switch to TCRML or TCRL's for this job or is there not much difference playwise and soundwise? My first idea is that the thinner the string the better it will be for slapping but I'm not shure about this... Anyone who has experience with slapping with the differerent stringgauges?
Thanks,

Thinner may be looser but will play slower with a slight delayed magnetic response on the pickups. The tighter the string, the faster the sound. You end up playing harder with lighter strings sometimes while chasing the beat.
