Love them

Nice chunky poly strings which I personally prefer to the normal cream Aquila strings you find on almost every Ukulele Bass.
They handle well, aren't too 'sticky'
Usual caveats apply with Poly strings, they stretch forever on first installing them.

Incredible

These strings add a whole new level of sound to your ubass/bass repertoir.
The gummy feeling of the rubber strings is transmitted to the sound. It's like having a new colour.

Beware, they need a Lot of stretching before they become stable in tuning. But once You reach that point I think they are Even more stable than the metalic strings.

Industry standard for the fretless bass ukulele.

Not many string manufacturers make strings for bass ukuleles. These ones are THE strings for bass ukes. Hope they don't harden with age like thunderguts did.

Great strings for U-bass

Picked up a pair to replace the stock strings on my Kala Rumbler. Easy to install and gives a great double-bass like tone while plugged in! Can't go wrong with these!
