i think TI jazz flats pretty light. they are my next string to try (i don't change strings frequently)

If you have the budget, I recommend the TI strings very strongly

Just got my flatwound bass string from My Music Store at Coleman Plaza, the small shop beside Davies Guitar.

It's an Ernie Ball Flatwound strings.. custom gauge, 45, 60, 80, 100. sounds pretty cool on my PBass. S$35.00 could'nt haggle with the owner, don't want to give discounts.
