No more warwick string for me anymore

Got a set of warwick black label string on my corvette and i like the tone but i decide to play slap bass on my warwick instead of my fender, but guess what.

The string is abit rough and my index finger is soar and skin come off so i can't play slap bass for awhile now

Yeah Warwick strings are probably the worst I've tried..They don't sound too bad but they just feel horrible...Feel dirty and you're right, almost cut your finger tips off!

Sucks that Warwick's come strung with them, puts me off trying them out because I can never tell if I like the bass or not...Haha

DR's, any Marcus Miller sig's ,Super nice slappers

I think i will slap a set of DR 40-100 gauge on the warwick. I use DR on my fender jazz and it sound nice. I may go buy a set next week and try it out.

warwick strings are not my cup of tea.

DR's on a Warwick would give a nice growl... i'd like to hear and or play that combination

I use nickel-plated lo-riders on my fortress one and it snarls like a panther.
