    Brad Pearson's Review of Dunlop SuperBrights (SS)

    Thought I would take a minute to talk about these strings since they are still fairly new to the market (I don't know of too many people playing them here in Vancouver). The test basses: Pearson Bass Five string (High c) with parallel wind Nordstrand Dual Coils. Mollerup Bass Six String with a...

    Stainless steel uncoated strings that last long

    Hi. Looking for some real bright yet balanced strings that last long. Something like really fresh Slinkys and Roto 66. Nickel or coated is just not an option, unless you find one that sounds almost like steel (like Slinkys but long lasting, maybe coated Slinkys will be bright enough, but can't...

    Vintage (or smaller) Frets and Stainless Steel Rounds

    To those of you that use both of the above, do you generally see faster fretwear vs. jumbo frets? I know that a lot of this has to do to grip, etc. but I am curious what you guys might think.

    Rotosound 66 brightness gone too soon. Is it just me? Is it a Rotosound thing?

    So, I'll admit it. I love that new string zing on a fresh set of roundwounds. I frequently use the tone knob on my Precision V to back off of the zing most of the times playing, but I'm a firm believer in the theory of "better to have and not need, than to need and not have". That said, I...

    Which stainless steel strings should I put on my Yamaha TRBX304

    I don't know much about steels, so I'm looking for a reccomendation. I'd prefer something that would be considered "medium-bright", if that's possible for stainless steels. In other words, I don't want anything super bright, but I still want something brighter than DAddario Nickel XL

    Sadowsky Blue label stainless steel strings! Incredible!!!

    Not sure if Sadowsky has had any recent changes in their Blue label strings, as I have tried these strings before on some Sadowsky basses (at dealers) and they were sort of average (but maybe they were old?). However, I recently ordered a set direct from Sadowsky and they are really incredible...
