These are the factory-installed strings on many bass models (e.g., Jazz Bass US, Ibanez Garry Willis, etc.....). And it must be said that if, like me, you use them a lot, this reference remains an excellent choice. The sound is bright, dynamic, and balanced. The durability over time is very good, so everyone should assess the price/durability ratio compared to references promised to be more durable but sometimes much more expensive.

I have been using these strings for a long time without ever being disappointed: fingerstyle playing, slap, pick, very good feel of the oily but well-defined sound, the snap of the nickel and brightness in the highs
