I also gently wipe the string after tuning it and then bow on it a little to hear how they compare after each string is on. With one new one on and 3 old or 3 new and one old or, 2 and 2, you can see how they compare quite easily. I kind of enjoy that part of putting a new string type on.

Yeah, you're right, that is a nice way to do it. I've just put new EP Weichs on my bass. They feel slightly thicker that the spiros - a nice feeling. I think they'll be fun.
