Hey, Folks.

Has anyone ever tried Rogue bass strings, the Musician's Friend brand? The go for about $5 a set and are supposedly made by Gibson. Anybody?

At that price...they are at lest trying out to have as a spare set. I think I'll order some and check them out. Or maybe we should designate a tester...:)

i actually had them on my bass for 6 months.they worked a lot better than i thought they would and i'd buy another set of them over the rotosounds i have on now.the strings are made by gibson and although they sounded kinda twangy the first few weeks i thought they were pretty good strings.

BW, string choices are sooo subjective. I use Martin Darco Nickel Roundwounds on some of my basses (including the Tobias 4, with great results) and all I've ever seen as far as comments about them are...they're crap:D You know what the ultimate test is...you have to try them yourself.

Let me know how they work out, maybe I'll buy some;)
