Great for slapping! Not so much for tuning down
J. Fors 08.10.2020
I bought these with the intent of trying new strings, to know which fit me the best. I have been using them for a couple of months now, and I have started to notice it's strengths and weaknesses.

Pros:
* Great for slapping/popping with ease.
* Are very easy to play with, especially if you wanna play quickly.

Cons:
* Not suitable for tuning down. Even going just a half step down, they feel like spaghetti. Drop D works fine, but is still not recommended
*Has below average tuning stability.
In conclusion: If you do a lot of quick playing (a la Jaco Pastorius) or do a lot of slapping stuff in standard E tuning, these are great, and you should consider them. If you like to tune down your bass to alternative tunings (drop D, Eb standard), get standards or thicker instead, as these wont be worth your buck.

Ces cordes améliore les capacités d'une basse même une basse de qualité moindre! J'ai reçu en réparation une "basse" (en réalité c'était un manche de basse monté sur un corps de less paul 6 cordes) (faites attention à ce que vous achetez sur internet) ;-) J'ai corrigé l'angle du manche pour que l'action(hauteur des cordes) soit acceptable. A mon étonnement ce jeu de cordes rend crédible cet hybride insensé. Cela manque un peut de brillant mais c'est la faute des humbuckers qui sont toujours plus "sombre" que les single coils. Merci Ernie Ball

A
The classic set
Anonymous 08.04.2017
When I first got my stingray bass these were the strings that came with it. Tried different types of strings after that in the course of 3 years but always came back to this set. To me this set is to bass strings what stingray is to bass guitars. You can play pretty much everything with them.

A classic-well balanced gauging, right amount of flexibility across the neck, right amount of grip-resistance. Tone wise, they're very responsive. You can easily achieve a gnarling, aggressive or a much more mellow, round sound with them. Thus they can handle pretty much any playing style. They are a little bit on the bright side; if you want a darker sound and less brightness (for picking or reggae for instance) you can just dial it in on the eq and strings wont fight back in tone.

They do lose their brightness after a certain amount of playing but they last much longer than most of the other strings I tried and the "gnarling" never goes away. Highly recommended.
