Reviews

Great tone
You can't never go wrong with GHS strings, they always provide a great ring and tone, I actually didn't know that they were still making double ball end strings and was looking for some for a while, but once I say that GHS was making them and Sweetwater was carrying them I immediately jumped at the opportunity, great buy!
Just what I need
A 5string set of ball to ball end sound great.
Music background: My hole life
Awesome strings
Sweetwater was awesome! Got these strings and they sounded great for the gig and beyond! Easy to change, will buy again!
String length
These are great strings if they fit your Bass. All 5 strings total length ball to ball is 35 1/2 in long give or take a very small amt of length. My Bass requires a string length of 35.85 in minimum. These will not fit the Steinberger XL2-W5. I used these strings and loved them for years. At some point in time they shortened the length of this set by 1/2 in. and i didn't get the memo.

Hope this helps.
