Valuestrings Bass 45-105 : Extremely good value

I have used many strings on my bass, ranging from the more expensive Ernie Balls to the cheaper Warwicks and even cheaper Harley Bentons. I have to say that these are not just good strings _for the price_ but simply good strings. Ernie Balls died earlier on me than these. EBs and Warwicks sound a little better, so for studio recordings I would invest in more expensive strings, but for band practice and live purposes these will be good enough! If you are on a limited budget you will sound a LOT better if you buy a new set of these for every second gig you do than buy an expensive set and use it for 4-6 gigs. For home purposes these last long enough. I have these on my standard tuned basses for over a year now and they still have some 'zing'.

My only problem with Harley Benton strings is that they don't make these for Drop C tuning!!!
