Product Review I use both the four and five string sets on all my four and five strings basses. They sound and feel great, they last, and you can't beat the price, especially for the three-packs.

Best strings out there

Larry Hartke always makes the best products he can make. PERIOD. They are made with a hexagonal core and i think it projects the low frequencies better than other strings. Very nice, crisp tone, but you wont get too much thin crispy tone, if you turn your tone knob down. Your general opinion of this product. best bass strings i have ever used, and i will continue to use them even though they are hard to find sometimes. They feel so smooth, with just the right amount of friction that i like when you slide your fingers.

Best All Around Strings

These strings seem to last a long time and don't lose their "boing" very fast. Have never broken a string while playing. I like the large gauge size of the HSB 550 set. They seem to stay in tune better. I would like to suggest a longer string would be nice for those folks that want to string their bass thru the body. I have a 35 inch scale and only a couple of strings will work for thru the body set up. The sound is quite even and full. Even the G string with it's heaver gauge sounds thin when you pop it and that's what you are looking for. Your general opinion of this product. Overall these are nice strings for the money. I have a Lakland 55-02 five string and these are the only strings I use. Lots of people like the combination of the sound.

Didn't expect it

Your general opinion of this product.

QUALITY:
These strings are well made, I didn't expect much, but they were only 12.95 so I bought them and I am amazed!

VALUE:
These strings were worth every penny! I usually use Ernie Ball Slinkys for my 5 string but I constantly break them and was tired of paying 25 bucks for strings. I ordered these Hartkes not expecting much and I was amazed. These strings don't sound as good as D'Addario Chromes which are my favorite but I will not pay 40 dollars for strings...especially when I break them or have to change them as often as I do. I will buy and use Hartke strings from now on.

SOUND:
Amazing! The tone of the strings are unbelieveable! Warm but still bright and punchy.
