Similar strings to DR Nickel Lo Riders?

Hex core, SS strings for an “angry piano” tone. Love Lo Riders.

I dig your Thunderbird! Is that an Epi or Gibson?

Check out Sadowsky Blue labels. Oh, and Jason at FretNation will take care of you.

It’s a Lull. Thanks!

Blue label feel a bit harsh for my hands. Tone is nice.

Funny, I hated nickel Lo-Riders and think Fender 7250m's are the same but superior in every way, especially after a week or two of breaking in. They used to sell them at Guitar Center but not anymore.

I've heard great things about these as well. I think some of the people running these are here on TalkBass:
Guitar Strings and Beyond - Buy Guitar Strings Online and Save! Strings and Beyond
Instrument strings and more for everyone | GimmeSomeStrings Gimme Some Strings

UPDATE: I've recently used these. Strings and Beyond is solid. And Gimme Some Strings ships really quick!

So, yeah, FretNation, StringsByMail, GimmeSomeStrings, and StringsAndBeyond are all great choices to buy strings from.

Eventually I want to try Rocket Music, since they seem pretty good (and I think the person running it is on TalkBass): Bass Strings

Nothing really sounds like Lo Riders in my opinion. Roto Nickels have a similar vibe so maybe try those?

I like them but was wanting to try DR Lo Riders Stainless.
