Long life and consistent sound

Jotzeph 08.01.2018

I love these strings. I use them on my 5-string modified Fender Jazz Bass (with Sadowsky pre-amp). I use the heavy gauge because on fenders the B string is typically quite floppy. But with the added thickness of the heavy gauge, the B string is snug and tight, and the sound is tight too. If you manage to keep a light touch, it sounds just as even as the other strings, and if you dig in, you get a nice gnarly tone. I've had them on for over a year, and there's absolutely no corrosion on them, and sound is still nice and bright.

Best 5 string set for low tunings!

Jay Kay Guitars 15.07.2021

Using these on my Ibanez 1305 Custom 1998 Japan for studio recordings in lower tunings.

I've been and still am a Elixir strings fan for all my guitars and basses but after I tried this set on my Ibanez 1305 custom I am not thinking of switching again. I can't believe how cheap they are and how great they sound.

After a couple of months of use, I have nothing to complain about worth every cent. Will buy again!

Top for low-drop fingerstyle

Guille de las Heras Flo 30.09.2018

These are, at least for now, the best choice for Drop A/G# bass tunning. It's really hard to find "fat" strings that, at the same time, they able you to play fingerstyle with punch.
I play a 4 strings Warwick Streamer LX Jazzman in Drop G#, and this is for sure the best option for playing punchy, fret-noiseless.

Sehr geil

Cristopher G. 08.02.2017

Endlich mal ein Saitensatz, bei dem die dicken Saiten nicht nur rum schlabbern.
Ich habe sie auf meinen Jazz Bass aufgezogen, der sehr davon profitiert. Endlich macht die B- Saite Knurr statt boom, so wie die anderen. Natürlich hat sie mehr Spannung und mehr Masse und ist daher etwas lauter. das ist aber gar kein Problem, man schraubt einfach den Tonabnehmer etwas tiefer und alles ist wieder im Lot. ich finde sogar, dass B- und E- Saite noch einen Tick dicker sein dürften, dann hätten sie die gleiche Spannung wie der Rest.
Der Ton ist aber schon jetzt schön sauber und neigt viel weniger zum Dröhnen als bei Sätzen mit dünnerer B- Saite. Straffere Saiten klingen eben auch straffer.
