ROCKTRONSETS - BASS PRECISION FLATS™
SETS - BASS PRECISION FLATS™
Long revered as the "Sound of Chocolate," Precision Flats™ sound and feel like rock and roll history! Stainless steel ribbon wire is wound over a hex core, and polished to a velvety smooth finish. This makes a string that is deep and percussive, with a bit of throat on the attack. The top end is pulled back too, with a smoothness to the notes as you climb the fretboard. You'll sit in the mix with a deep authority, ready to anchor the band all night.
Why Should You Play Precision Flats?
- You want to sit low in the mix, and anchor the groove
- You know there's magic with a Fender P-Bass and flats!
- You want that authentic vintage sound and feel

I have two American Deluxe Fender Jazz Bass V five-string basses set up alike.
As you can see from the photos, the standard length of the fifth (low-B) string is too short and the purple wrap reaches through the nut.
- You all had previously issued a longer fifth string.
- That is what I'll need to complete the order.
I've been using Flats forever on my Fender 1962 P-Bass in studio work, live concerts and club stage gigs but wanting a smoother feel with some extra pop, punch and a bit brighter. After a lot of consideration and conversations, (I choose the M3050 set). I'm anxious to get them on and enjoy the smooth sound I'm comfortable playing with.
These strings are so friggin' good they should come with a warning label. The lows are perfect, my StingRay turned into a Disco era Concrete Mixer! Thank you GHS
