They look great Larry, any reason why they couldn't be left polished if requested ?

Anyone tried them for fit yet? I will try a set with a string change, but am curious now.

Maybe I will do the same when I (eventually) get around to changing strings on my 4001, however that may be a while yet. The TI Jazz Rounds sound very nice at the moment with a muted thumpy-ness that exudes '60s tone; the strings have been on the bass since sometime around 2008 or 2009! :mrgreen:
