## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice alternative to the non-steel strings
*by R***N on April 2, 2025*

I put these on my Kala Ubass to replace the fat polymer strings. I really like the sound, feel and tunability.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ phenomenal tone
*by R***S on April 4, 2023*

There is no doubt that these strings are 100% better than the stock rubber strings.Pros- tone is simply incredible, sounds a lot like acoustic bass guitar a la Violent Femmes- feel of the strings is very close to normal bass guitar round wounds, just a little easier on the fingers- these strings don't require special technique and fast playing is easy- sounds great with a pick or fingertipsCons- the A and D strings have very long string ends, but barely enough usable string to get a full wrap around the tuners. The string ends are very long but very thin, and don't provide much grip around the tuners - the solution is lots of wraps of the leader material on A and D strings. The attached photo shows this.- loud playing causing a little bit of a string buzz in the A and E strings

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bass Ukuele Strings that are easy to Tune!
*by A***R on January 6, 2023*

Hello, I've been playing a Kala U-Bass for 2 years now off and on. I just started playing with a group that this instrument fits into very well. As I started with the stock strings (big fat rubber bands), I loved the deep tubby sound that reminded me of upright bass. It was more of a novelty than something I would use regularly. After playing with a new group I wanted some more clarity and a better feel so I upgraded to Aquila Silver Rumblers. I did notice a slight improvement in clarity but still hard to tune and they get sticky. On the elusive quest for tone I decided to try the Kala Silver Plated Round Wound Set. BOOM! What a difference. The tone is well defined and the notes are clear and cut through like never before. They don't have the tubby sound of the polyurethane strings (which I love) but for my current situation these metal wound strings work perfectly. Added bonus is the ease of tuning. With the Poly strings you crank and crank and the pitch doesn't change then you fly right passed your target. You have to crank and stretch to dial it in. The metal wound strings tune up to pitch with quick response. No more bow and arrow stretching to hit pitch. The metal wound strings do change the sound to a more traditional electric bass sound but that's what I was looking for. I recommend these strings for clear note articulation and ease of tuning for this super cool instrument.
