42301 M Red Label : Strange strings...

4 years ago

Just put them on my Xotic bass, so can't comment on longevity. They have a nice growly tone, but D and A strings won't intonate properly!

If I intonate the D string for a perfect pitch at 12th fret, 4th to 9th will all be super sharp, then flat at 15th+. And it's the exact opposite for the A string: sharp from 4th to 9th, and flat from 15th and so on... I don't know if I received a bad set, but there's no way I'm trying another one! They will probably end up in the trash can soon... To bad; they are fairly priced. I guess you get what you pay for!
