Beginner

Perfect for jazzers on a budget
4 out of 4 found the following review helpful

Pros: These are the only "budget" strings even considering. Budget might be doing them a disservice as they have their own unique quality which makes them worth considering. Bright, loud and thin ( easy on the fingers) I like their direct attack . Not dark, not very old school they are perfect for a pizzicato jazzer using an underwood type pick up.

Cons: Not enough bass wood in the sound if that makes any sense at all!

good strings cost less at The String Zone
3 out of 3 found the following review helpful

Pros: beautiful rich tone, fairly kind on the fingers (I play jazz)

Cons: the price in the shops, and the fact that at the rate I play - the rich tone starts to decay after fifteen months

Other: I ticked keen amateur above, but I am a semi pro busking bass player who appreciates a rich tone

Pros: New strings are gorgeous! These strings are good for both pizz and arco.

Cons: Can't quibble for the price.

Other: Good service from Stringzone! When I phoned to make a small query on my order the lady was polite, knowledgeable, and was able to tell me exactly how my order stood. Will definitely use again.
