We just wrapped up the March raffle for the Upton Bass Revolution Solo Pickup and got a lot of great gig stories in the process.

The topic for the month of April is the following:

What double bass strings are your current favorite… and why?

The rules used for March’s raffle still apply–please write at least a few paragraphs about your preferred strings. Just writing “Dominants rock!” won’t fit the bill. Tell us what you’re using, what you’ve used in the past, and the qualities that you find appealing about your preferred strings.

This month, I’d like folks to just leave their submission in the comments for this post (you’ll see the comments box at the bottom of this page–leave your strings commentary there).

One important thing–you’ve got to leave a legit email in the specified eamil address field below. If you don’t, there’s no way for me to get in touch with you if you win! Don’t worry–your email isn’t published on the site. Only I see it… and I’m not a spammer! I won’t even put you on any annoying lists or anything like that. It’s not my style. If you don’t leave an email (or leave a teensy weensy little comment) then I won’t publish the comment. Not being a jerk–these are just the weary words of a guy who has moderated something like 30,000 comments over the past six years of blogging.

So… what are your favorite strings? What have you used in the past? Why do you like what you’re using now better?
