Harley Benton Valuestrings Bass-5 45-130 5-stars Reviews

Best of both worlds

Sounds pretty good, is resistant and is cheaper than most. What else could you want?

Great for back up bass

I purchased these for a back up bass which was rarely played. The sound from these strings is crisp and bright and the the low B has plenty of tension.

Best value string on the market

Nice strings, good value for the price

Strings can be a big part of how the instrument feels, and I am not usually inclined to be a cheapskate when buying them. However, these play as well as other brand strings and really do not cost as much.

Some corners may have been cut, but in the end they just play quite well. I find the tension might be a little lower?and to be perfectly honest, it seems to me that they might be ever-so-slightly thinner than other strings of the same gauge (as advertised on the pack).

This is in no way a deal breaker, though. I mostly install them on my cheaper basses, but now I have a set on a nicer Jazz Bass and they play very well.

They seem to have a very decent lifespan. Perhaps they are not quite as bright as other brands when new, but they do keep their brightness for quite a while.

In conclusion, these are nice strings, could go well on any bass, really, and at this point my only complaint is that they do not do any six string version, which would be nice as nowadays I mainly play a sixer. Other than that, I highly recommend them.

Best strings for their price

I change strings on my bass very often and buying expensive strings just to practice is annoying.

These strings are AWESOME.

They sound good, hold well and they are CHEAP. its the ultimate solution for practice and gigging.

Always have a pair of sets in my case and change them with no hesitation.

Unbeatable for Their Price

Bought these strings not expecting much since they were so cheap, but I was pleasantly surprised by what Harley Benton has to offer. I usually put stainless steel strings on my fretted basses and was curious if my Yamaha would retain its growly sound with these value strings. And it did, plus the B string sounded more defined than ever! I believe it is because the thicker three strings are tapered, so they wind around the tuning posts more easily.

I can't comment on the longevity of these strings, but right out of the box they did not sound as zingy as other, more expensive options. It's not a problem for me, but for others looking for that fresh string sound it might be a con, though.

I'll be the first to admit that Harley Benton strings are not as high quality as DR's, Rotosounds or Dunlops which are about 4 or 5 times more expensive, but they don't feel 4x worse. In fact, after putting these strings on it seems foolish to pay 30¤ for a roundwound set again.

Bottom line: if you play well and your bass sounds great, you will still sound good. Highly recommended.

Thank you for good quality and price of this product.

Very durable and easy maintenance.

I will certainly do more orders and give to my friends.

You're getting more than the price suggests!

In short, they are surprisingly good strings for the money. I have put the strings on a Yamaha BB1025X that I own and the strings sound even, clear and have a good feel to them. The B-string sounds slightly different from the others, but that may also be related to the Bass on which I put them (unfortunately the B-string on this rather heavy bass isn't great). I will probably buy them again, they are average strings at a very low budget price!

My go to strings.

These strings are my go to strings for my five string now, they sound amazing and feel great too. They feel really well made and they are a lot cheaper than any other strings I have used. I use them in a professional environment constantly and get compliments on my tone all the time!

My only problem with them is that they loose their brightness quite quickly but at this price it's easy enough to put on a new set.

I don't think i'll change my string brand any time soon either!

I recommend these to any bass player!

Price over quality!

When you do a lot of gigs on bass, you go through quite a lot of strings. You end up not caring about the quality of the string as you realise the tone of it dies within the first gig or two due to the sweat and dirt it will pick up from your fingers (yes you can clean them but thats something most people forget)

These are value for money! They are not as good as the more expensive strings, but will last as long for a fraction of the price. The difference in sound (on my bass guitars) is the tone is slightly muddier, just like when you have played on strings for a good week, and the volume is a little less.

These days I only buy value strings, unless I am recording.
