  • Bright and clear
Style: Long Scale Size: Light, 45-100
Coming from using Elixirs with my fretless, these definitely have a more “sticky” feel, so sliding and bending notes takes a little extra practice. Not really a flaw to me, it’s just different. That being said, it is a much brighter sound, which is what I was looking for for some slap/pop playing.

  • 55-135 pro steels a must have
Style: Long Scale Size: Medium, 50-135 (5-String)
I started with nickel roundwound and after years of experimentation and preferring to play with a pick I never could quite get that snarly bite out of whatever string I used, just put these strings on and immediately there it was, that quality I've been chasing since I started playing bass. Probably my favorite aspect is if your bass has an active eq you can dial these in to sound like familiar nickel territory, brings the full band together much tighter than nickel in my opinion and despite being slightly more coarse (but come on, it's a bass guitar, if you're complaining about your fingers hurting than go play guitar) after a minute or so it's not really noticeable when the tone is straight up talking to you in way nickel just simply can't. Nickel shines with finger/slap players. Pro steels really shine when playing with a pick. ... show more

  • Bright and lovely
Style: Long Scale Size: Light, 32-130 (6-String)
I have a nickel allergy and a six-string bass, and these were the most accessible strings for that particular combination of factors. The sound is quite nice, and while it takes a while for the oils from your hands to sort of lube up the strings to allow for slides and such, they will get there, and they will play smooth. ... show more

I'm a professional bass player, with 35 years of experience. Always use D'addario, because it's a great stuff for this price. I like several brands a little bit more, but these brands almost in twice expensive. If you have everyday gigs - only D'addarii, imho.
