Harley Benton HQS Bass 45-100 Flatwound

FLATWOUND strings for such a price

it feels like a steal, literally compared to rounds these are harder to play and you'd need to adjust the truss rod these don't feel as slippery as rounds i like these, because they seem to get to the normal flat sound really fast although i do suspect it will take like a week for them to properly lose that bright high end

Good value

As someone who isn't necessarily experienced in gear yet, I found that these strings sounded great for me. I'm sure that someone more experienced than me can probably find some flaws in them, but I also found that any other set of strings with good reviews and recommendations was out of my budget.

Pure crap

Its very bad quality and a lot of weird buzzing when playing on A string....disappointing garbage, don't save money on good strings!

Good value

Initial feeling is a bit stiff. However the strings loosen up pretty good. Good sound out of my telecaster bass. Excellent value for money

quality issues

Don't waste time and money on these strings. Bought a setn the A string was rattling, got a replacement with the same issue.

Superb stainless flatwounds

These strings are fantastic. At any price point. The went on so well, are wrapped well at each end, and more importantly, sound fantastic. So impressed. The sound as good as other sets that would cost 3-4 times more.

P Bass-ilicious

They are currently used on a P Bass and they are a huge difference from the Ernie Ball stainless steel that were on it previously. A new variety of tones altogether. I'm sure there are better and more expensive sets out there, but if you want to try flats for yourself for the first time, go no further.

Is this a joke?

E string snapped as soon as I put the string on the instrument and started tuning.

Defective A string

Strings E,D,G are nice but the A string is rattling even when not fretted. I checked it on 2 bass guitars that sound perfect with other strings - same result. Now I see that another customer has the same problem with that particular string. It is a shame because the other strings sound fine and all four of them are great to the touch...

No for me

Not this time. Usually l like Harley products and im using different gadgets so i wanted to try this for budget flatwound alternative but no.

If you're really looking for something cheap just to try how the flatwounds are then go for it and try. Then you can buy something decent. Or just buy a good one. (Fender or Rotosound).

Not worth it.
