ETB92 : Smooth as Silk

5 years ago

I bought these strings for a vintage P-Bass and i just love the feel they provide. As a poly instrumentalist i'm also grateful for the fact that i can now play for extended periods without any pain or discomfort.

As to the sound they're not as "vintage" sounding as i expected but i can take steps to correct that, as i have a very good amplifier with excellent equalization possibilities.

The one thing i did not expect is the fact that,in my case at least, these strings have a bit of hum compared to regular strings. I suspect this is due to being covered by nylon material - your hands don't touch metal on the strings.

Pros: Very musical, very comfortable

Cons: More Hum (In my case - passive P-Bass)
