Ernie Ball strings are really the standard against which all other strings should be judged. Consistent quality, bright sounding, no excessive tension, no excessive fret wear, and long lasting. I have several basses with these strings that I installed years ago and they still sound really good to me. Then again, my idiom for bass is not the super bright slappy stuff so popular now, it's more like the old Jamerson Motown sound. Great product, good price, I'm happy with these.

I'm a guitarist who plays bass on their own records. I don't often play bass and find that Ernie Ball stays pretty fresh for a good number of months when not playing often. If you're playing daily or a few times a week then you'll probably end up with dull strings in a little under a month.

The tone is good but I also don't put too much stock in string brands for tone as most of it is coming from the player and I don't obsess over that part on bass. The break-in period isn't long. You can break these in within 24 hours if you restring, play for an hour, then let them sit.

I'm used to Ernie Ball from years of playing guitar and they're always reliable and never had a complaint about the strings. They're great everyday strings and I wouldn't criticize anyone for using them. I don't use them on guitar anymore but wouldn't have a problem with using them again if I had to.

OEM strings on my Sterling Stingray Ray34 were too heavy for me. These stings are perfect and sound great. Easy to play and the top string has plenty of low end. Will use these going forward.
