    Considering the bad things I've heard about Rogue products, I assume they are poor quality. But has anyone had any experiences with Rogue strings? Are they really THAT bad?

    Has anyone actually tried them? Not that I'm thinking about buying them, but for 6.99, I wish they were good:D

    Hey, I've tried them, the only thing is is they go dead really fast.

    If you're going to lowball your strings, I suggest www.webstrings.com . They cost a little more, aren't the best, but their Detroit Bass are good quality and aren't made from that 6-pack you had last winter, like most Rogue products.

    Rogue strings arn't bad... they are made by Gibson anyway... the rogue strings aren't bad, just my experience with them is they didn't last that long.
