Bright String Help Please

[Solarmist]

Its time for new strings for my 5er. I play with picks only, and want some bright to very bright strings that bend easy. Any help would be appreciated. If it matters its for a ESP LTD B155, and I don't know what strings it came with new-do you? Thanks TBers

D'Addario Pro Steels are the brightest I've tried.

Da'd Prosteel's are great! The MTD stainless steel strings bend a bit easier and are just as bright.

I believe ESP and LTD bass come stock with SIT strings. SIT Rock Brights stainless steels are said to be quite bright. I've never tried them, but have tried PowerWounds, PowerSteels, Silencers, and PowerFlats. SIT are good value strings.

The "go-to" strings for bright are DR Hi-Beams and D'Addario ProSteels. Fodera stainless steel strings are pretty bright too. I also like Ken Smith Rock Masters.

I would avoid Dean Markley Blue Steels because though they start out super bright, they become the world's muddiest strings in about a week or two.

DR hi-beams for sure. They're the brightest I've ever played, and they are pretty low tension so they will bend easy.

+1 for Hi-Beams
