Reviews around tone (5.00 of 5)

  • With this string it easily holds the note and stays in tune well, as well as having great tone and tension even when tuned down to Ab
  • I needed something slightly thicker to get the E to sound right.
  • : I'm very happy with the tone--nice and bright, and it's translated over well to recording

Reviews around band (5.00 of 5)

  • With this string it easily holds the note and stays in tune well, as well as having great tone and tension even when tuned down to Ab
  • I play bass in a Progressive metal band and we tune fairly low(Drop Ab)I have a bass with a 35" scale, but even with that extra length most 5 string bass sets aren't heavy enough to handle a Ab for the 5th stringI used to use a set with a .135 for the 5th, but it just barely held the note and was extremely muddy and dull due to how low the tension was

Reviews around tension (3.86 of 5)

  • I needed something slightly thicker to get the E to sound right.
  • With this string it easily holds the note and stays in tune well, as well as having great tone and tension even when tuned down to Ab
  • Be warned though, you don't want to use this to tune to a B, because the tension would be ridiculously high and might warp your neck
  • High tension on 34 inch scale neck nut great for any bass
