40301M Black Label : Good strings for an acceptable price

12 years ago

I bought the Black Label Strings especially for my Warwick Thumb BO5. Because of the Taper Wound 130 String it fits perfectly onto the typical WW Bridge.

The quality is – for the price – okay. The Black Label Strings a little rough, but not TO rough. So slides are not a problem at all. The Sound is a little nasal: strong mids. So you can get the typical Warwick ‘roar’ out of these strings, without any problem.

The endurance is about average for steel strings, but you can play them quite long if you don’t need the extreme high frequencies.

Overall I’d recommend this Strings for all Bass players, who need a mid- and powerfull tone.
