nostr:npub1fxnt0flf8gkd0ddk0yrxlgh6rdfqf4ny9t6yme2v39fu8dj5z4cq30l0n5 i'm fairly new to this instrument. the strings it came with appear to be round. i have a some experience with the electric bass but was never an expert. people say good things about the flat wound strings. i don't know what they sound like.
