Mike, EP weichs have a great pizz sound and a very good arco sound. They might be worth a try. The one thing I would say is that the bowing response is a little slow for very fast arco passages (on my bass).
I keep meaning to try something else but they work so well, as a "do it nearly all" string, that I keep putting it off. I repeat - the jazz pizz is great.

Richard, I agree. The EP weichs work well on my bass too.
