Bass players demand consistency, durability, and versatility from their strings. Dunlop delivers. Dunlop bass guitar strings offer traditionalists, slappers, and pick-wielding rockers cutting midrange, wide bottom end and a growl that will cut through any band. Carefully selected core-to-wrap ratios yield a low-tension steel string with an extremely long life, and minimal break-in time. Each 4 string set is exceptionally well balanced from string-to-string, and provides an amazing amount of dynamic range.

I've been playing bass for around a year and I like to slap and pop hard on my bass (Red Hot Chili Peppers-style). I bought two sets of these strings because Guitar Center was had a sweet deal on them. Put them on and they sounded lovely. And then after roughly 2 weeks, my G string snapped while I was popping. I was forced to put on the G string from the second pack, which then broke after another two weeks of playing. I expect better from my strings. I'd recommend a set of D'Addario's. I had a set of those on for around 5 months before I had a G String break.
I put a set of these on my old P bass about a month ago,and was blown away by the tone and sound. Now here comes the bad part. That "killer" sound only lasted for two gigs and went deader than a rock. Now after 37 years of playing I have used every brand on the market, and can assure you that's it is common for all string companies to make a "dud" now and then. I don't know if I will use these bass strings again, however I will say the Dunlop NPS strings light gauge 9-42 I put on my old Stratocaster are fantastic ,and will probably be all I use from now on for electric guitar strings. I'm giving a thumbs up and five stars to Dunlop electric guitar strings. As far as their bass strings, I would have to try another set to make a decision. I will say if the next set of bass strings is like the first, I'll have to vote thumbs down.
I've been playing bass since 1980. I have tried just about every string made, since then. I'm very happy with the Dunlop nickel sets. They aren't as bright out of the package as some other brands, but they settle into a wonderful, full, punchy, growl that suits most styles and shines for rock and classic pop.
I have these on two of my basses. They last a long time for me. It's normal for them to sound good (good harmonics/not all thump) for a few months or better.
If you need a constant glassy sheen on top, pass these by. That's not what these strings are about. They will, however, produce an excellent, classic slap tone, even after they settle in. They sparkle when they're new, but they lose the extreme "zing" within a couple days.
The bottom line for me is they are versatile but classic sounding, they speak well in the mid-range, they last, and they don't hurt your wallet.
I'm a fan.
