## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    D-string de threaded at both ends
  

*by C***0 on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 2 April 2023*

Hope these strings are ok.  The D-string has de-threaded at both ends.  41 years of playing the Bass and this is the first time it's very happened.

### ⭐⭐ 2.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Disappointed
  

*by S***. on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 31 January 2023*

The description says 45-100 but also then says 45-105….I think 105 is probably the case.My set came incorrectly packaged which led to me trimming the A (packaged as the E) shorter than ideal. I’ve no idea what’s happening with the D either, but like another reviewer experienced, it doesn’t seem to be the correct wind for this set.It’s a shame because they actually sound and feel decent enough.  I’ll be sticking to more established brands now though.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    OK but D is a rogue.
  

*by K***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 19 April 2022*

Came on time but was a 5 string short scale set with the E string at 105 not 100 as advertised. However, I cut and fitted them and the D is a bit of a rogue with the silk winding on the headstock end a long way from the nut, plus slightly longer silk at the bridge, was this a long scale string? See photos. However, they sound very good so far.
