Yeah but the Lo-Riders sound so good! (at least in recordings, I'll be honest and admit I haven't played them myself).
Used D'Addario Pro Steels for a while. Switched to Circle Ks and that was a big improvement. Now I'm looking around at other brands to experiment with. Definitely more of a nickel guy than a stainless guy.
Not a fan of Ernie Balls, have tried them for a little bit and heard them on a lot of basses and I'm not a fan. They're cheap for a reason, IMO.
Don't care for Elixers much either. Not a fan of coated strings in general and the Elixers are overly bright.
I think I might give GHS a try. I like what I've heard of their pressure wounds.
