  • Great strings at a reasonable price
Size: 4-String Style: 2604A - NickelSteel Bass ML
Dean Markley strings have great tone and feel. I just wish they were a bit longer to permit string through body, but that is a minor consideration. What counts is that they make my basses sound fantastic.

Totally taken by surprise with these strings. Bright, punchy, responsive, flexible, smooth. Perfect for modern bass sound. They excell on my Schecter and are my standard for that bass.

  • THE WORST BASS STRING DESIGN EVER !
Size: 4-String Style: 2608A - NickelSteel Bass XL
There are little or no winding's on the ends of these strings. They get to a point where they're just steel strands that will not grab on to a tuning peg. At least on the set I have. No matter how you put these on but the time you get to the "D" and "G' strings these just slip around the peg. Now I'm out the money and have strings that don't work and have to buy a new set of what I know will. ;Absolutely worthless set to me. ... show more

Size: 4-String Style: 2602A - NickelSteel Bass LT
Overall, good bass strings. Very low tension with good sustain. However the D string caused persistent buzzing seemingly on all frets which I’ve never experienced with other nickel round wound brands. I replaced it with a slightly larger string and the buzz disappeared. Normally I use 45-65-80-100 and these are 40-60-80-100. ... show more
