Customer reviews about Daddario EPS160-5

A

The most for the money

Aspacs 27.01.2015

I'm using the EPS-160-5s on a Warwick RB Corvette $$ (34" scale), which doesn't sound have a lot of treble by itself, especially considering it does not have a preamp where you could boost those. The strings are used for standard tuning, where the tension works well, and for half step down tunings, where the lowest string is a little too lose.

The sound is very sparkly at the beginning, which might force some players to roll back their eq either on the bass or the amp. But for those who occasionally play chords it might be a great way, to give them more presence.
The treble wears off after a few weeks of regular playing. If you either don't like Elixirs (or coated strings at all), or don't wanna spend so much on strings, you have few alternatives if you want to play chords or treble-heavy metal.

Durability seems fine.

Very nice

The sound is exactly as advertised and very bright with a metalic sound. The build quality is very good which is to be expected from daddario

They're okay.

I guess D'addario is one of the leading brands in steel roundwounds. The only reason why I use them every once in a while is because of the lack of steel varieties in the current market.

They sound super bright for about 2 weeks or so, and they rapidly degrade.

Sturdy Strings

Good for gigging, last a fair amount of time

I wouldn't use them for recording as they gunk up fairly quickly, but good enough for all round playing

Good Strings for the price

James K. 23.04.2014

I found these strings very good. Daddarios are always bright and crisp sounding and last longer than a lot of other roundwound strings. However I prefer a lighter gague of string (.045 to.130) so I find these perfect for downtuning a whole step while retaining the tension of a lighter gague at standard tuning. Also the fact they are steel means they have slightly less tension than Nickel wounds.
