I've been playing bass guitar for forty years, this brand has always been my go to strings. They last for years, hold tune, very good value, and sound better than my playing.

Legit Strings From D'Addario, Players Codes Work No issues.

goes bwap de bap, love these strings they’ve lasted me years now and still sound great, haven’t rusted and both my basses stay out of the case 24/7. they also always stay in tune!

Quality strings with a good feel and sound.

These are quality Bass guitar strings. I like them, prefer them over the flat wounds.

These are my go to strings for my Fender P Bass! I like the feel of them when playing and they have great tone and brightness to them. They also last a long time for me (playing about 3 hours week). Would definitely recommend!

This was my first time changing strings for my bass, it was a really easy procedure, nice sound and looks...

These are stings I feel you're not supposed to like. Thing is, I keep coming back to them. They are everywhere and they are inexpensive compared to other comparable strings. They feel good, you know what they will sound like and about how long they will last for you. I am using the balanced tension 4 string set on my Spector LX4, they are fantastic. The strings I just bought here on Amazon are the XL170 5 string set for my Spector LX5. That bass is 35 scale and the normal "long scale" strings fit as they should. They are also great, but if I had one criticism it's the B and E string gauge. Most sets in this range are .105 for E and .125 or .130 for B. Here you get .100 for E and .130 for the B. It seems an odd jump and I suspect it has to do with keeping a tight sounding B while attempting to balance tension across the set. That's probably good on a 34 scale bass, but it would be cool to offer a more traditional .105 and .125 set if you have a 35 scale. In any case, it's not somthign that I'm conscious of when playing, just a bit of OCD and the B does rock at .130, but it also does for any strings I've tried at .125 on the 35 scale. Maybe something for 5 string similar to the balanced tension set offered for 4 string. That set has the E string at .107. That may pair pretty well with a .130 B.
