i bought these strings to replace nylon ones on a Fender Mustang bass i use a lot for recording, it's my go to bass for when i need that buttery warm tone a la Pino Palladino.
I was satisfied with the nylons but they started decaying very soon after i put them on plus, since i often switch from flats to rounds from session to session depending on the song genre, i needed something that didn't made the switch too drastic: these strings were the answer.
A little bit stiffer than regular round strings i find that the little extra tension compensates the switch in terms of feel from rounds to flats and in terms of scale length from short to long.
No cons except maybe the stiffness is a little too much if you plan to make them your main strings in this case i suggest the regular gauged version

I put these on a HB Shorty P bass straight out of the box, something about the heavier gauge (I wanted them to feel as close to standard gauge tension as possible) give this bass grunt, woodyness and it sounds so smooth, great for funk and classic rock/pop.
