Höfner HCT1133R Bass Strings 5-stars Reviews

Just what I needed!

Having recently purchased a Höfner bass and learning that the bass had a 30 inch scale, I decided to play it safe and get strings from the same manufacturer.

The strings are great quality and sound excellent. I’ve never had any issues with tuning stability or breakage and find these strings last a good length of time.

They may be suitable for other basses of the same scale length, I can’t speak for longer or shorter scale lengths, but they’re the perfect strings for my Höfner. I’ll be using these every time I need a new set.

I love the sound of this roundwounds strings , best for shortscale bass, Not expensive and do its job, recommended

Bread and butter

Tried and tested, use these regularly for gigging and have not had string failure yet. Although I replace after every 10 - 12 gigs. Tried various other strings including Pyramid gold flatwound but have suffered string failure, sometimes after only 5 or 6 gigs. Good overall sound for the money.
