Am I the nightmare customer?

[Mike O'Malley]

Thanks all. I'm using weichs at the moment, a well used set that I like the tone and feel of. I've tried, on this bass or other basses, Obligatos, helicores, Spiro mittels, animas, eurosonics, Bel Cantos, labella tape wounds--the weichs have the best combination of pizz tone and bowability, and on this bass they sound less twangy than the mittels. Maybe time to give the Oblis another look?

I use a combination of Weich E and A and Obli D and G and timbre-wise, they match up well on my bass, especially for pizz. The Oblis may give you a bit darker sound if that is what you are looking for, and I like them better than weichs under the bow.
