DDT

Picked up a set of DDT's (105-45) at a local shop. Didn't have a 5 string set
So I'll have to order a B string online

I play faster stuff so I like a little more tension on my strings. These Feel good at standard tuning. I also like to go down to A standard but would need a larger gauge for that.

They sound fat and dark. I put them on a EBMM Sterling 5 which I always thought was
A bright sounding bass. It was normal for me to turn down the treble to all the way off.
With these strings I turn it all the way up and wouldn't mind a touch more. E and A string sound like a wet blanket is on the cab.

They don't sound bad, just different from what I'm used to.
Still deciding if I like them or not.....
