Best bass strings if you like a super bright sounding tone

I've used these strings for years because they give you an incredibly punchy sound that cuts through the mix in both the live and studio settings. They also last noticeably longer than other string brands. Fantastic all around, highly recommended.

Great Strings

I've tried a lot of strings and these are in my top 2 favorite steel strings. They sound great with lots of clarity and growl. They also last longer than the others. Price is great for the value you get.

an excellent alternative to RS66

easy on the frets, easy on the fingertips (wish Sweetwater also offered DR's flatwound FL-45 Legends; have to go to the South American River Co. for those)

Amazing!!!

I've used Dean Markley Blue Steels for over 30 years and decided to try something new and I was blown away with these strings. The tone is crisp and gives me the crunch I needed. My band mates were in awe of the sound that was coming out. They take our metal to the next level.

DR Hi-Beams

I haven't used any other strings on my basses for over 30 years. Just what they say. Last and last. Full balanced tone and I get the punch and attack of the RotoSound RS66 that I started out with in the 70s. I have them on all 7 of my basses and there is no evident fret ware on any of them. Highly recommend them
