First experience with Fat Beams

Sign in to disble this ad
So I wanted to replace the GHS Boomers that were on my Fender Performer from the previous owner with something punchier, and I really liked the Hi Beams I'd had on my ESP. I decided to try a set of Fat Beams and this bass can punch holes in a brick wall now. Any other happy converts to these strings?

I also really like the sound, but i have acid hands and kill them quickly, but between Fat Beams and Ken Smiths i have found my brands of strings
