Never had an issue with D'Addario strings, been using them on my guitars for years. Will continue to use them forever. Durable, and have yet to break a set between changing them.

I spent many years trying to find a round wound bass string that didn't go dead in the first set of the night. A few years ago a friend recommended D'Addario XL's. I tried them and haven't looked back.
I have a very bright tone (think Chris Squire or Geddy Lee), and if it's not there my performance is negatively affected. I can typically get 4-6 shows out of a set of D'Addario strings. With other brands, it was a new set every night.
I'm now playing with a band that tunes to Eb, so I'm experimenting with some different gauges now. But no matter the guage, the tone and the life of the strings is consistent.

Man I put these on my 100 Dollar Glarry Bass and they changed the the way it sounds as well as plays. I Use D'Addarios on my Guitars as well and these Bass strings are good for the Bass as well. Great sounding strings.

The best of the best!
You can pay a lot more, but you won't get better strings. I've been using the 165's for 8 years now, and have never popped a string! I have with other brands, but not these.
smooth, easy playing, easy on your frets, and fingers, they connect well, mimimal buzzing, very fast and smooth feel.
Bright top end, with a good low end boom, excellent low end dynamics, super low end grunt and growl, but high notes ring like a piano! I changed my strings before last practice and got sevearl compliments on my tone!
Absolutely, Bass players are famous for not changing their strings often enough, well at these prices now you can! and get the best for less, no string sounds or plays better than these do, save your money and change your strings more often.
