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.

My go-to strings! Sound excellent new and broken in, and priced right. When I was a working bassist these were the perfect rounds for me. I can afford more expensive strings now, but I still buy these because I just like them!

Quality strings with a good feel and sound.

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

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!

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!

Finding the perfect string seems like a lifetime process. I prefer roundwounds on my Precision bass since I don't play Motown style, but at the same time I didn't want anything that was too bright or raspy. I've found some roundwounds (especially the ones with a round core) have a raspy high-end to them that never seems to go away. I had been using the DR Pure Blues but decided to go with the D'Addario hex core rounds because I know that hex cores are mellower sounding. I have tried the DR LO-Riders, but they were just a little too mellow for me, and also too stiff. These D'Addario medium lights are livelier sounding and bright but without the raspiness of the DR Pure Blues. Another thing I like about these strings is that while they are hex core, they don't have the stiffness or high tension you would expect with a hex core. They are very comfortable on the fingers. It's funny. When I first started playing the bass I used D'Addario flatwounds, and now after trying almost every string in the book, I've gone full circle back to the D'Addarios. I think they really are a superior string.

Bra strängar till ett superbra pris!!

D'Addario EXL165 XL Nickel Wound Bass Strings 105 - 85 - 65 -45 These bass strings are the best I have ever used, simply brilliant. I play a Epiphone Thunderbird Classic IV bass and these strings compliment the bass very well indeed. I did have the heavier gauge first, 105 - 85 - 70 - 50, but these were a little on the heavy side for me. Both gauges however have fantastic, glossy highs, thundering lows ( get it! ), not too boomy but enough to make you pull a funny face in approval - you know the kind - and of course great mids ensuring you don't naturally get lost in the mix. If you buy the double pack it makes these strings exceptional value for money - not that the single pack isn't already. I like to always have a back up set in my case just on the off chance one breaks ( yeah right! ). The life expectancy of these strings obviously depends on how often you play and how well you look after your instrument, but even if you use your bass regularly and don't wipe it down quite as often as you should - just like I do - you will get an easy 6 months out of the strings before you notice any change after the break in period, from there on I would describe the tone as "warmer" but certainly not dead like some strings inevitably end up after that length of time. Saying this, I can't recall ever having ended up with a "dead" set of D'Addario Nickels, some being on as long as year, but obviously this is subjective. Now i'm sure you've played those round wound bass strings that make you feel like you are massaging razorblades, am I right? The state it leaves your fingertips in is just awful! I'm sure you can think of a few brands that do this as can I. Well good news, especially for your frets! These D'Addario's aren't like that at all! Of course being nickel wound really helps with the general "smoother" feel as opposed to steel wound strings (again subjective), but these are definitely smoother and easier to play on than any other Nickels I have tried. The last thing you want from a string is a great tone and a terrible feel, making the whole experience of playing a bit of a let down. I have just had my bass set up and asked for these strings to be put on after the previous set of D’Addario’s being on for at least 9 months, however I almost had the same set put back on being as they were, in all honesty, still sounding great. Overall great product, great price and long lasting making them great value for money, especially a twin pack! Bass Players who haven't tried these out yet, get some ASAP, I'm sure you won't be disappointed!
