roundwound, not flats, and it works better on the e and a than the d and g. You get this layer of scum come up to the surface, which you can pour off. Now, this was done after the bass had gone for a swim in the 2007 flood in Newcastle, and was more of a "well, it's f**ked anyway, lets see what happens!" Sidenote: that swamped-ash bass (get it?) still played alright once it was dried right out.
Bahahahahahahaha!
Swamped ash.... Thats funny
Bet you were glad she survived though!

It was a bass who belonged to the mate of a mate of a bloke who knew someone who was in the band once. By the time I got there it was lineup 3, and only one original member was left. And no-one had ever claimed it, so it sat in the rehearsal shed. When we started cleanup I though that i should check it out since I was the bassmunkey. Shocked that it survived. And was fun to beat around on too
