D'Addario - Making strings for over 300 years

Behind every set of D'Addario strings are over three centuries of fine craftsmanship. The D'Addario family tradition began in the tiny town of Salle, Italy in 1680 where they made assorted instrument strings for over two hundred years before relocating to New York in 1905. As the modern string making industry began to develop, the D'Addario family emerged as innovators by designing the winding machine most string makers still use today. And while their techniques have modernized, the pride that goes into each set of strings dates back to the D'Addario family's earliest roots.

Round wound, flat wound hybrid

Been playing bass for quite some time, 40 yrs to be exact. Started with Roto Sound rounds and then finding D'Addairo Rounds when I picked up bass again about 5-6 yrs ago. Never really liked Flats. Then I was researching strings and came upon these. I bought a set and strung my Squire P/J bass with them. These are great. I get the tone I was looking for, good bottom with articulate mids and highs. There is less finger squeak when playing and the strings feel like a hybrid of rounds and flats. Very happy. With that being said I got a ser for my Squire VM J bass(have not mounted them yet)to replace the D'Addairo rounds. I'm sure the J bass will sound as if they have flats on it. Try these out. The price is in line with others.
Music background: Bass player for over 40 yrs. Currently in an old timers vintage rock, country and jazz based band.

Happy with these

These are nice strings at a great price. The round wound sound without finger noise, smooth, easy to slide from note to note. Will buy another set for the next string change. Thanks Sweetwater

WolfBass

Got these D'Addario Half Rounds' to transform my new Bass (thanks for deal!) from a "bride" to a "BEAST." THESE strings never disappoint - my Ovation Elite Bass grew some "stones." If your bass sounds too pretty - put some these on.
Music background: Active player - 30+ years
Rated 5/5

Favorite strings

I have tried rounds, flats, and tapes, and these strings are my favorite. Very even sounding across the strings and easier on the fingers than flats or rounds. Definitely a bit brighter and more crunch than flats on my Fender P.
Music background: One year
