    I have not used these PARTICULAR strings, but I did notice a big difference between a .135 B string and .130 B string set on my Bongo. My band tunes flat so the string tension was a tad floppy with a .130, much tighter with the .135.
    YMMV.
    I've seen a million basses, and I rocked them all!
    Currently rocking with Shakedown, exclusively on a 2008 Candy Red Bongo.
