Bass String Set
Ernie Ball Bass Strings?
I need someone to tell me what the difference is for every Ernie Ball Bass string set and then I need to know which one sounds better for slap pop, preferably on a Squier by Fender Vintage Modified Jazz Bass, the answer with the most details gets 5 stars.
Hey, Ive been playing bass a long time, and I currently use the EB Slinky 5. I have an old Squire Jazz as well amongst others. I don't do much slapping myself, but I think you'd want to go to the Super Slinky. It's a lighter and brighter string which will give you nice crisp pops, however it is a little rougher on the fingers if you don't have good callouses built up yet. The Regular Slinky strings are a little warmer sounding and smoother to play.
A lot also depends upon your playing style. Are you hard on the strings, or do you have a softer touch and lots of gain/headroom. If you play hard, then I'd probably think about the Power Slinky Round Wounds.
Of course, the best place to get advice on this is from the experienced staff at the music shop where you purchase them, and you may also be able to try out different strings on the axes they have there.
