Description
If you’ve been chasing that old-school R&B and funk low-end but keep landing on strings that sound dead or lifeless, these flatwounds are worth a look. Dunlop built this set to deliver a solid, clear fundamental note with real tonal range — dial the tone knob back and you’re in warm, rounded thump territory; open it up and you get a punchier, more articulate voice without losing that flatwound character.
This is a 4-string long scale set gauged 45, 65, 85, 105 — a comfortable, moderate-tension setup that won’t fight your hands on a long gig or a late-night session. Dunlop pays attention to consistency here too, so string-to-string output and tone stay even across the set, which matters when you’re relying on flats for a specific vintage feel.
Dunlop makes these in-house at their Benicia, California shop, running smaller batches at a slower pace so there’s more quality control at every stage — not something you get from mass-produced strings. Each set ships sealed for freshness so they’re ready to perform when you open the pack, whether that’s next week or next year.

Grab a set for your main gigging bass, or toss one in the case as a backup — either way, this is a set built by people who actually care about how a bass string ages on stage, not just how it looks on a shelf.
