Jim Dunlop Super Bright Nickel Wound Bass Strings 45-105

I've been playing bass since 1986. I've used just about every brand of long scale bass strings on the market. Dunlop Super Brights in Nickel and Stainless Steel feature the longest life, high end zing, plenty of bottom-end thump and piano-like tone. I use these on passive and active basses.... traditional basses like the Fender Precision and contemporary basses such as the Ibanez Soundgear. Dunlop Super Brights sound good on any bass. The Low B strings are just as good as the E-A-D-G strings on 5&6 string sets. Highly recommended. Great value for the money.

BEST LOW-COST BASS STRINGS IN A NORMAL LIGHT GAUGE.

I normally use flatwound bass strings, but they wouldn't fit thru the body of my new bass. So on a friends suggestion, I tried these strings on my ESP LTD B-5 bass. And I LOVE them. Such a unique sound - bright but without sacrificing bottom end. And even though they are roundwound, they are not uncomfortable to play for someone that normally uses flatwound strings. If you are looking for something with a great tone across the spectrum, give these a try!

I have a tricky 35" BTB Ibanez that is hard to find strings for. With the extended scale length most standard length strings do not fit. Happy to report these worked great. The taper of the string was perfect just beyond nut and they have snappy brightness I was looking for in recording. I also appreciate that I didn't refinance the house to shoe my 6 string bass.

When they say bright, they mean it. Then again, maybe my frame of reference is broken since I rarely change bass strings. The point is they sound damn good on my Sterling 5 string. They're definitely best for rock/metal or slap and pop funk where a bright tone is preferred. At this price point they're pretty much a no-brainer.

I love Dunlop Surer Bright strings for guitar and bass, the bass stings are balanced, with a focused round tone with clarity. They are bright but not harsh bright, they are also warm sounding and very flexible, easy on my hands. The work great for slap, pick or finger styles and at $20 for a 5 string set, what is there not to like. I've used both the nickel and steel, but I prefer the nickels. Check them out.

Sadowsky 5 string - Aguilar rig These strings combine the best of all worlds - bright, lots of growl, excellent feel, and fat warmth. Love DR HI Beams, but they lack warmth when needed - Sadowsky stainless blues have fantastic tone, great growl, excellent fundamental tone, but the feel is very tight, not as comfy as the DR's. Sadowsky nickle blues - nice growl, great sound, much warmer, also a little quieter - the tapered B string is the best sounding of all B strings. The E String seems a little quiet in contrast to the B (we're splitting hairs here). Even still, the Sadowsky Nickels also have that tight (inflexible) feel. The Dunlops have a more flexible feel, and seem to hold up under varied tonal demands (Motown to Slap), I'm able to dial tones that stay consistent through the spectrum. It's amazing what Dunlop has been able to accomplish in 12 years of string manufacturing. YMMV depending on your style, bass, and rig - but for me the testing is over, and sticking with Dunlop Super Bright nickels. cheers!

These are my go to strings. I use DR high beams for years. I like these little better they seem to last a little longer. They seem to have a little more punch. I have nothing bad to say about them for the price range. I think they're excellent

ラウンド弦とは違って、いい鳴りをしています！購入して良かったです！

Suenan muy bien, gran brillo en el sonido

What's more to say about the infamous Super Brights? For those not in the know, they're less "bright" and more crunchy. Dunlop significantly increased their QC in recent times I've noticed, and without hiking the price. A win for everyone. I'd also add that, like DR Hi-Beams; I'm not too thrilled with the tone at first... But break em in and you're in tone heaven. They absolutely purr and do so for a long while.

This is my second set of these strings. The first I purchased tp put them on my 4 string fender jazz and was so pleased with the results I just had to replace the D'Addario strings, which sounded very average, on my 5 string jazz bass, now that bass has been transformed into a tone beast. These are probably the most balanced set of strings I have used, but now I have been left with the dilemma to whether I changed my beloved DR strings I have on other basses. Overall a fantastic string which I cannot recommend highly enough.

Good value bass strings!
