hey guys, ive been playin bass for about a year and a half. in fact Dec 19 is the anniversary of me getting my spector . anyways, i need some new strings, ive been able to avoid getting new ones for a while, ive only had to change them once. they were my dads 5 year old D'addairo's. i need some new ones because i am breaking them. i want to have a good treble sound that i can use both my fingers and a pick with. any suggestions would help me alot. thanks guys.
Everly B-52 Rockers are my absolute favorite bass strings in the world. I like them so much that I even opened an online store to sell Everly stuff. However, it didn't work out, and I closed it, but I like these strings better than all others. So, in other words, I have no financial incentive for recommending them. I used these strings on my Heartfield DR-5, and I'm currently using them on my Squier 5 (which sounds great, incidentally). They are very even-sounding and the clarity of the E and B is very good, which is one of my big concerns. These are Alloy 52, which is supposed to be brighter than nickel, but not so bright as stainless. I have recently tried GHS Boomers, Webstrings, Ernie Ball Slinkys, Fender 7350's, D'Addario XL's, D'Addario Slowounds, Elixirs, and some others, on various 4, 5, and 6 stringers. I liked the Boomers, Slowounds, and Elixirs best out of that list. Hope this helps.
