Dull G-string but perfect service!
Wanted to try something different. Well these are.
Coated black nickels. Not as bright as steels, but should be brighter then regular coated nickels. Well. that's about right I think.
The G-string was DOA and I contacted Thomann. Without any further ado they sent me a replacement which is a lot better sounding then the first string I received. Perfect service. The G-string still doesn't have the 'singing'-tone like the other strings do have.
I am playing in C# tuning and these string are perfect for that. Interesting note is, that when you are playing on a bass with single-coils you will have more ground-hum. It looks like the coating dus not connect you to ground when you touch the strings. If you play through a DI or Wireless this isn't an issue.
Can't say anything about reliability and durability (yet).

Tapered - not for everyone
Great looking strings. Seem to sound good too (have not played them enough). Unfortunately I had not realized they had tapered ends: a lot of buzzing as action is now too low on the bridge end. I don't want to mess up my saddles and action so I am reverting back to my usual strings brand. A pity.

These can't be coated
Bought this for a project "monochrome" bass, yes I am being a tart..., anyway, I didn't expect them to sound as great as they do! So impressed with the tone on these bad boys, I'll be buying DR coated strings for all my basses now I think
