"D'Addario makes the best bass strings in the world."
I'm using strings I bought in the '80s. I can say no more.
Sound
I've been playing bass for 40 years. I started with the old Fender 40 undersea cables. D'Addario strings hold their tone much longer than any other string I've ever used. I'm one of those people who use strings until they break, and these never break. They record well, and even hold up for years at the beach. I can't imagine using another brand.
Features
They last forever.
Ease of Use
There's a manual?
Quality
I do keep a backup set or two. Once I was in Paducah, KY, for a week and broke my G string the first night. There was no music store. Not that anybody probably noticed, but I played out the gigs on 3 strings. Some other brand, of course.
Value
The best.
Manufacturer Support
Never talked with them.
The Wow Factor
Strings have sex appeal?
