I have been playing bass for 30 years, and touring for 20 in a range of styles. I have tried them all when it comes to strings. I came across these recently from a friends recommendation, and I absolutely love these. Hand wound, hands downthe best strings I’ve strung up my bass with in a while. The tone is well rounded in the spectrum. Rich and meaty with punch, beautiful clarity, with just the right amount of brightness in the highs would be my best description. And they last. I fly an lot and these hold up through harsh and changing conditions. But even better, recording with them I get everything I want to compliment the instrument.
