Dean Markley 2675 Blue Steel Bass XM Reviews

Great sounding, thick strings!

Best strings for drop tunings and agressive sound. Thickness allows them to be tight down to drop C#, however if you like to go lower and have that agressive, fret-rattling tone, these are best on drop C, B or 5-string lower string tuning. Sound itself is very bright and metallic, yet has that tight low end. Best for metal, hard rock, punk and other genre`s where agressive bass sound is a must. Sound the same around 2-3 weeks of intense playing (2-3hrs a day at least), then start to become dull, yet still sound good!

Best strings I've bought

I've been playing bass for years and therefore gone through a lot of different string brands, this is by far the best set of stings I've used. Much longer life, nice thick strings (which I prefer) and they do perfectly for drop tuning. If the gauge isn't a problem for you then pick these up for sure! (also the blue bits looks lovely around the bass head)

Drop Tuning

I bought them as I read the guy from Billy Talent plays them.

I play in two Bands (DGCF and C#), thats why I chose the 110 gauge.

They are made of Stainless Steel compound winding and cryo frozen in the factory.

If I feel that? No. Do I hear it? No :)

But the strings are now for about 2 Months on my Sandberg and they still feel so good. Not old! But the crispy highs are away. They have a awsome tone,

The feeling is not too sticky. And whats most important, they stay in tune even with my different tunings.

I tried many brands, and after 12 years I have found MY strings!
