Exclamation Stark?

Never heard of these. Stark strings can choke the top as well and sink it gradually so keep a close eye on your bass. It will sound darker and maybe louder but the health of the bass comes first. I only use Starks on super strong health tops and those with some decent arch to them.

On weaker tops, lighter strings let the wood vibrate more freely.
