Haven't played for several years and now that I'm retired, got nothing but time. Ready to fall in love with my gift and these Blue Steel strings they are helping to set the pace. Like riding a bike you can just pick up (almost) where you left off.... Good product....

These are the longest lasting strings I've ever used - I have been using them over 20 years, and the tone is bright and full - I won't use anything else!

Broke a fretless base string, always use Blue Steel, best strings made. Could not find a music store that was open, couldn't find anyone who could ship Prime-time. This dealer set the order out the very next morning. Fair retail price. If you are still using nickel or even worse, tin plated strings, change to cryo-steel. I've been playing for half of a century, no string, electric, acoustic, or bass comes close to pure stainless cryo-hardened steel. Just put a set on and see what I mean. The entire range and harmonics are crystal clear, and stay that way indeffinately; just keep them clean. If you have a [locking] wammy bar, they never go out, never stretch, ever. Musicians friend, Sweetwater, no one could get the product out the door, all in shutdown mode. These guys shipped, again, the very next morning. Thank you.

Package was old and out of date. It was also very worn like it had been sitting on a shelf for years. Upon putting them on my bass, they were already half dead and very dull sounding. 1 jam layer and they’re completely dead

Favorite zingy strings. Seem to last forever without ever getting wholly dull. I play rock and blues and this MED gauge is what other manufacturers will call MED Heavy. Love the fat tone and good string tension.

Blue steel is my favorite all time Bass Strings. The tone is so bright and punchy. But, after stringing all 5 and tuning up, the low B snapped and broke at the machine head. Bummer. I put the old B back on since unstringing all 5 and returning them does not make sense.

MY favorite strings, they stay brighter longer from the cryogenic freezing, and are much stronger than other strings, but still very Flexible. The nickel plating doesnt beat up the frets.

Lasted six months of occasional playing before "G" string broke near the tuning peg. The initial brightness dulled about as quickly as many other strings. The cryogenic aspect seems like just a gimmick.
