Hi quality strings

Bright sound, balanced across the strings and neck.

Brilliant and long lasting

As the title says.

They are only few real bass strings. Forget about expensive DR/Dunlop or dull Rotosound.

Piano like bright but warm sound

Bit more tension compared to Labella and D'Addario nickel strings I have had in same gauges. Then again brings a bit more attack on a mid scale bass.

Very good but pay attention to the tension.

I'm very sensible to string tension. Generally I prefer smooth/soft feel. Sadowsky Blue Label SBN40 are well built and sounds good, but they are little "stiff" for my taste. In my personal scale, they are more stiff than the Labella Rx Nickel (that I prefer) and these one are more stiff than the DR Pure Blues (the most smooth/soft strings, very good for my feel).
