I know the difference between SS vs Nickel, light vs med vs heavy.

My style is modern gospel, cont. christian, old gospel, etc.

I prefer the hifi sound associated with SS, but do like the warmth and smoothness of nickel.

I have looked through the site and I am not sure what to start with. master series, rock masters, compressors, burners......


Some one give me a direction to go on. I will most likely buy the top 2 recommendations.

It's listed on the FAQs of the website the exact Strings that come on the Bass and made specifically for these Basses as well which are the TCRMs in 4, 5, 6 and 7-strings sets. Burner Taper Core have a slightly smoother feel.
