Big Thank You

Sorry can't remember the Posters name that recommended the GHS Balanced Nickel Lights Bass Strings
40-101. Doesn't 101 seem strange for the E string? On the website, it says

• Full tone that is deep, but focused with even response
• Strikes a balance between tension, flexibility, tonality, and playability
• All the above is right on, the tension it's the best I've come across
• The problem I was having with my other set was even volume across the fret board
• the G string for sure was getting lost in the mix. These strings play and feel great I even
• bought a second set for my MusicMan so thanks again

Assuming you're referring to THIS THREAD of yours, you're very welcome. Glad to hear it's working out for you.

Glad that interested you. I chose New Thread had no idea I was on the first one. I will enjoy the strings.

How's it sound on your Music Man? (Is it an alnico-loaded 'Ray?)

@michael_t is the resident string PhD in these parts!

Sorry can't say about the alnico loaded.But it sounds great. Equal volume across the fretboard good sustain and best tension on the strings I've ever played.

Is it the Ray on your avatar? Looks like it's neodymium-loaded then! Might try the GHS Balanced Nickels on my Sterling.

Yes it is the Ray. Also have them on my 75th anniversary Bass. I think I've finally found a string I like.
