Versatile strings! Smooth and bright!
Style: Long Scale
Size: Light, 45-100
I bought these with some DR Flatwound strings. I had only played round wound strings up until these. I put these on my Music Man bass first, and I must say that they felt soooo smooth compared to the other D’Addario and Ernie Ball Strings I’ve played before! They sounded very mellow compared to anything i had played before as well. I honestly regretted my decision at first. I thought they were too warm and mellow for me. But then I put my DR flats on my other bass and realized how not flat they were! The DR flats were so much smoother and deeper sounding! These strings are right in the middle of Super Slinky Ernie Ball Strings and Dr Flatwound Strings. I love them! They are exactly what I was looking for! Versatile strings for a versatile bass! I uploaded a demo video to this product, so check that out.

Sound completely dead except for G string
Style: Long Scale
Size: Light, 45-100
I started playing the bass after playing guitar for a few years. I got a used mid 90's G&L SB-2 American that had some older (but lightly used) rounds (45-100, measured with caliper) on it that still sounded pretty good. Even with callouses from guitar, they were ripping up my fingers and were super noisy due to my untrained technique. Also, they were several years old so I thought that semi rounds would be a great compromise- according to the literature they would retain a lot of brightness but be much easier on the fingers and also faster feeling with less scratchy noises while sliding up and down the neck. They are easier on the fingers, but they sound so dead. Like someone lightly plucking a standup bass. There's no sustain, except for the G-string which sustains longer than the E, A and D strings. The G string actually sounds pretty good. If they all sounded like that, I'd be totally cool with these. I also was not expecting them to feel like they do- they grab at your fingers almost like very very fine sandpaper. I could be experiencing exactly what they are supposed to sound and feel like, but I kinda hate them.

Great for short-scale bass
Style: Short Scale
Size: Light, 45-100
Fixed intonation, fret buzz on my short-scale (28.5") Mikro bass. No string noise, smooth as flat wounds, but with better tone and volume. Not as stiff as flat-wounds, better flexibility. Highly recommend for short-scale bass. Why did I wait so long? Well worth the extra cost.

Best of both worlds - Flat wound feeling with more of a Round wound brightness.
Style: Short Scale
Size: Light, 45-100
Replaced the stock strings on my Squier Jaguar VM SS - much, much better sounding. Perfectly satisfied. One thing I noticed on the bad reviews - mostly about string length - most had either string through bodies or like the Hofners where the tailpiece is 2" from the bridge - the string length for these measures from the bridge to the nut and will fit all 30" scale basses with Fender or Hipshot style bridges where the ball end is actually at the bridge itself. As someone else pointed out you really need to measure from where the ball end of the string actually attaches to the nut to get the actual string length you need. I also replaced the bridge with a Hipshot Kickass high mass bridge and these strings still work fine.

I LOVE the tone (and feel) of these (ENR71M) half round, medium scale strings on my Hofner Club bass.
Style: Medium Scale
Size: Light, 45-100
Bottom Line: These strings truly do have most of the smooth playing feel of a set of flat wound strings, though not completely as smooth. (The outer winding surfaces were made as normal round wounds, then the outer surface was ground down until the surface was flat-ish.) Yet the tone of these strings retain a noticeable amount of the brightness and overtones of round wound strings. The best of both worlds on a bass if you ask me. Very Important!: These medium scale strings fit my Hofner Club bass perfectly. The heavily wound portions of the strings run from below the archtop's floating, rosewood bridge and then, just past the nut of the bass, these strings quickly taper down to where they DO fit into the holes of the guitar tuning pegs Hofner uses on its basses. The E string's taper at the top is just enough that it fits snugly into the E tuner's post hole. The other strings, of course, fit into their tuners with more ease. This bass is a joy to play, and the feel and tone of these strings have increased my enjoyment of playing it. I was given a Hofner Ignition Series Club Bass for Christmas, though I got it early. The Club bass is made in the same manner of hollow body construction as its more famous Hofner Violin or "Beatle" bass brother, only the Club bass uses the same Les Paul-ish shaped, single cutaway body as the Hofner Club guitar. The natural tone of these hollow body basses has a distinct thuddy, woody character resulting in a tone more akin to the tone of a large acoustic double bass than does any Precision or Jazz bass. These Hofner basses are 30 1/4 inch scale (15 1/8 inch from nut to center of twelfth fret) basses for which there are notoriously few choices of string sets because of the extra string length needed from the bridge to the trapeze tailpiece. I have wanted a Hofner Club bass for over twelve years (when I first laid eyes on one of these sunburst beauties being played by Kurt Smith of Tears for Fears) and I finally got one; even if it is the $350.00 Chinese version rather than the $2300.00 German original. (The bass's manufacture, finish, and workmanship are simply amazingly close to perfection! I'm truly impressed with the workmanship.) However, I really liked the sound of this Club bass with the included round wound strings. Sadly, the winding end of the factory strings were coming unwound somehow and the A string broke at the tuner, necessitating this string purchase. On my other bass I have long used a set of D'Addario ENR71 "Half Round" bass strings and love them. If the Hofner Violin and Club bass users on the bass forums are to be believed, the vast majority of new Hofner bass owners immediately on delivery remove the round wound strings installed in the factory and replace them with LaBella or other brands of flat wound strings. I guess the idea is to get as close to Paul McCartney's unique thumpy bass sound as possible. I'm different, and am loving the thumpy AND bright overtones, and feel of these D'Addario ENR71M medium scale strings on my new short scale Hofner Club Bass.

Really like these strings
Style: Long Scale
Size: Light, 45-100
I am using these on a 32" scale Warmoth bass with thru-body ferrule bridge. They sound great and are very comfortable to play. They are a great fit. I am able to get very low action with these without having to do any additional fret leveling .... With regular round 100-45 mid-scale strings, I was having 2 frets buzzing which would have required leveling. The 100-45 half-round strings provide tighter tension than the regular round 100-45 and now I am not experiencing any fret buzz with the 2 frets.

Check Estring length before you buy not for all short scale bass
Style: Short Scale
Size: Light, 45-100
The strings will not work on my 30.5 inch scale Ibanez ABR 200 bass. The taper on the low Estring starts before the nut, actually right in between the first fret and the nut as you can see in the picture. I will have to get a standard set for this bass. String seem pretty nice though, I did have one on and didn’t hear any noise when sliding.I think the gauge may be a little light for a short scale bass they are lighter than the stock set that came with the bass when it was new last year. Must’ve had 105 gauge on there not 100. All of the strings are slightly lighter gauge than what came with the bass.
