DR Who?
I play down-tuned metal. I"ve been searching for a punchy-sounding string that can keep tension in C standard and drop B. This set of strings is perfect for that. Nice and tight(both feel and sound) in low tubings with an okay feel. My one complaint would be that these strings grip my fingers a bit, but that"s something that goes away with the addition of callouses. Also, as far… read more as I can tell, these strings have a long life to them(take that, Ernie Ball!)
NYXL = Perfection
I have used different strings at different times for different sounds. I found, for myself, that a Nickel round wound string fit most situations best. Of course, a LaBalla flat is another sound that I also like. For years I have been a D'Addario XLB player as it is a solid string, but it is also readily available AND I like to play .110 -.085 -.065 -.045 gauges that are available… read more as singles to make a set. I use a Hipshot D-tuner. Two years ago I saw the NYXL .105 - .045 set at Sweetwater. I decided I had to try them. I have not stopped. It is the BEST Bass Nickel round wound string I have found. Hear them for yourself. Also, George @ D'Addario has been so helpful in helping me obtain the single .110 NYXL string until singles are readily available. No one has better player support than D'Addario & Sweetwater! Thanks, Carl, my personal Sales Engineer extrodaner! ;)
I like 'em!
Clean, crisp tone - a "live" string. Only improvement for me would be to wrap the ends on the tuning machine like other strings do. It makes it easier for me to grab and wind.
