2836 Regular Slinky : Great strings

10 years ago

It is the second time I am putting these on my bass.

Seems that this strings combine some good characteristics. They are bright enough but carry a good low end too. The most important part for me is the playability as they are soft enough to help some fast playing and bending techniques, but the still keep a firm position at the same time. Another good point is that the keep a good sound for a really long time. Been beating them a lot in rehearsals and on stage and they seem to handle the use nicely. You may lose the brighter side earlier than a set of steels but it feels that the punch that these strings carry till the end of their life is enough to compensate.

Will probably be coming back to these next time around too.
