I have tried many strings, I do like these strings a lot. So I am not looking for any other brand, etc. I guess, the question is will my bass like them even more?

thank you.
The Weich gauge is lighter/less tension than the regular gauge. For pizz, you have to play them lighter or put them on a bass that the regulars feel too tight on.
