great as basis of 6-string set

I use these on my Ibanez 506 along with a .32 C and .125 low B. They're long-lasting, bright, responsive, easy on the fingers, and have very even response string-to-string. I used D'addario and GHS for years, but no longer since I found these.

I've found that this set works better than heavier sets on my 506. Heavier sets have less sustain, duller sound, and don't feel as even in response.

Ellixir Extra Light bass strings

I use these on a medium scale, 32" bass and I love them. The tone isn't as bright as my old favorite; Blue Steels, but they stay bright longer. The coating on the string makes playing easy and it's easy on your fingers.

Some people have complained that the tone is too mid-rangy but they sound fine on my bass with a big ol' EMG humbucker on it.

NanoWeb Strings

Best strings I ever bought...was using GHS Boomers for years and am never going back, glad I made the switch. Everything they said about the strings is true.

"From deep, rich lows to bright, punchy mids to sweet top-end detail, Elixir Strings deliver the full range of bass tones.

"Every time you play your bass, tiny bits of you are left to invade the windings to contaminate your strings and kill your tone. Elixir Strings are the only strings that keep dirt out of the windings by coating the entire string. Our ultra-thin NANOWEB Coating provides a bright, lively tone that players tell us lasts longer than any other string, uncoated or coated. This means you buy fewer sets of strings, change them less often and trust your bass guitar is ready to go whenever you are.
