Warwick Black Label Dark Lord strings

Laerik 20.01.2014

Got these after searching and realising no other brand carries gauges this thick. Tuning down to G och F# on a lon scale bass (34-35") bass makes for a mess with a .135-string, but with these babies you're home! After adjusting the nut (widening, don't make the groves more shallow!) and the bridge on an Ibanez SR I could only be amazed at the clarity of wich the lowest notes rang. Add to that great sustain, and after punishing them for months they still haver a lot of string sound left in them, so they seem very durable if you only wipe them down the finished playing. The lowest one we're however a pain getting all stretched out (same for several pairs) and getting it to stay in tune, a lot of elasticity in that one. Given that they are (as far as I was able to deduce) the only ones available in this gauge, the price is fair I suppose, but an alternative would be interesting to try, but untill then, these babies rock!

bought on behalf of our basist

Stevo1959 11.05.2020

our basist is a gear geek, so I assume if these strings were not perfect, he wouldn't buy them :)

p.s.: it wasn't the first time he bought these strings

Excellent subcontra bass strings

Fudu 27.01.2021

I'm using these bass strings since more than ten years. When using a subcontra tuning on your bass guitar, this set of strings brings an excellent result. The sound can be best described as punchy in the mid freqencies with very tight lows. They produce a somewhat compressed sound, have an extremely reliable quality and stay fresh for a long time. Recommended when you prefer stiff and great articulating bass strings.
