Customer reviews:
Keen Amateur
Warm, even tone.
Pros: Always a buzz to get new strings as I never notice old strings slowly getting dull and quiet or the gradual increase in bow effort required to get the same volume. These Perpetuals seem to have a big. warm tone with minimum effort from bowing or pizz. The tonal and power response is even across all the strings.
Cons: Why are double bass strings so much more expensive than say cello strings?!
