Your fretless string of choice?

[Michael Harrison Jr.]

I love my fretless bass. I was very fortunate that my first Private teacher was a big fretless fan and got me interested in it very early. Unfortunally he had moved out of town before I purchased my first fretless so I never thought to ask him the important question of what strings he used. I always loved the sound his fretless had.

Since then, I've tried many strings and to be honest, so far none of them have risen above "just average" status to me. So what I want to know is what you all use as your favorite fretless string.

I'm looking for a string not too much bite to it. I really want a great "mwhaa" fretless sound. For example, I really love the fretless sound in Without You from Rent: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-pO1N...eature=related

(I did a concert tribute of Rent a couple of years ago I just really was upset I couldn't get the fretless tone I wanted back then.)

Any suggestions?
