Best inexpensive strings

[bassguy74]

I'm really surprised no one's asked what bass you play, as every bass is different.

What bass do you play?

I don't. LOL I don't yet have one! When I get some money in the next few weeks or so, I intend on buying a Warwick I found used online.

best cheap strings I ever bought were D'Addario ProSteels. after a month they were dead as s*** though

^ Yeah, I *LOVE* the tone when they're new... but that seems to last for all of a few days of serious playing.

You don't have to change strings on a bass as often as you would on a guitar, unless you just like that bright new-string sound. Most of my basses have strings that are several years old, and I just replaced a set of Rotosounds on my P-bass that had to have been 10 years old. Splurge and spend $20-$30, you can get a great set in that price range. Ask your teacher (you do plan to take lessons, don't you?) to describe the differences in how the strings feel and sound.
