9050L : I gave these another chance!

10 years ago

I wrote a bad review of the medium version of these strings as I found them hard to play, stiff and cable like compared to regular medium strings. I also had an issue with the silks breaking when I moved them to another bass rendering them unusable. I gave them another chance because to be honest I couldn't afford anything else. This time I went with the lights which are still pretty thick I would say the equivalent of medium gauge regular strings. They actually sound really good on my vintage modified squire jaguar bass and feel nice and smooth. They also sound really good when you play with a pick. I suspect that these will have the same problem with brittle silks so they are staying on the same bass tell they wear out.
