DR Strings NICKEL LO-RIDER™ - Nickel Plated Bass Strings: Light 40-100

These are great strings from DR. I got the 100 Gauge. They are a little bit more stiff than pure blues. They have a good sound for rock/metal with a nice amount of warmth from the Nickel. Sound great on my Ray4.

Buscaba unas cuerdas que tuviera una buena tensión, sonido y en las que pudiera confiar, y como siempre DR jamás me falla. Siempre fui un tipo muy apegado a las cuerdas de acero inoxidable, pero después de probar estas jamas las dejaré. Son el sonido, tacto y todo lo que buscaba en unas cuerdas. No dudes en comprarlas si buscas algo bueno bonito y barato.

The strings looked used, they were to short and was bent. Don’t think I should buy strings from Amazon again.

Good bass guitar strings

I have been using these nickel Lo Riders for a long time on a bunch of different basses and they always seem to be able to cut through the mix whether it be a modded jazz bass or a Spector with an active circuit. These strings are wildly popular for a reason, they provide the perfect mix of mids and highs most players look for in a string and sound fuller and last alot longer than the D'Addarios and ER slinkys I have tried. These strings make fingerstyle more enjoyable, they are smooth and very touch sensitive. I liked these so much that I started to buy them more than my beloved Hi Beams for my active bass because of the rounder sound and less harsh highs. There are very few bad revies for these DR's on the web and DR is always a quality brand. I may try the steel Lo Riders soon on my 5'er to compare the sound difference. Amazon has the best prices on bass strings as well as Prime shipping, so buying these is a no brainer.
