they are solid strings. i use nickel on my basses, but my son thinks regular strings are boring, so i bought him these. well, it works. he plays more now. if you want the younger generation to play music these days, then buy them all the bells and whistles as part of inspiration.

These strings are beyond my expectation. I thought they would just look cool, but they are legitimately good strings and easy on the fingers. I will only use DR strings from now on!

I bought these the first time 5 years ago for a New years Eve show and wanted the them for the aesthetics- I was blown away at the tone they provided. It made my bass sound like a new instrument. It's been almost six years- the same strings are still on-- none have broke, and they still sound "ok" but it's way past time for new ones-- I can't believe how long they have held up though- no broken strings while still providing acceptable tone. The tone of the new ones was crazy though- and it had that fresh "snap" for longer than I typically get form new strings

I wanted to install these strings mainly for the look of it, but I was happily surprised to see that they perform well too. Good quality strings, and very nice looking.

Sounds just as bright as elixir strings which I have used up until this point. Half the price and look amazing
