ROCKTRON3120 SET - MEDIUM SCALE PRECISION FLATS™
3120 SET - MEDIUM SCALE 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

Update: I’ve installed the strings and they fit perfectly on this bass. I cut each string about 10 cm past the tuning peg. The action is perfect; no need to adjust the truss rod or the bridge saddle. They hold the tuning well right from the start and provide a tone very similar to a double bass; more, IMHO, than the nylon tapewounds (different brand) that I also tried on the same instrument, which sounded a bit 'plastic-y' on an acoustic bass.
Hello, I've just bought a Harley Benton B30 FL (a fretless acoustic bass) and I'd like to mount the precision strings on it. The bass is a medium scale one (32") with a pinless bridge. Is the 3120 the proper set? I guess so, but I'd appreciate a definitive confirmation. Thanks
