Having played bass for a fair while I have tried many pieces of equipment.
Including many kinds of Dean Markley, D'Addario, Ken Smith, Spector, GHS and
probibly other brands of strings I can't remember now.
As soon as I put them on I noticed that I had found what was missing in my
sound, the strings. They are funky as hell, deep in their tonal feel, with a
bright but not bothersomely bright sound some strings have. They are great
for many types of playing and I recomend them for blues to funk to metal.
A problem I had with my usual brand, Ken Smith, was that they like my
previous "usual brands" they went out of tune even on my Spector. But as
soon as I put them on and tuned up I didn't have to tune up for a couple of
days and even then only a step or so.
