Bass strings. NEW bass strings. Holy hell, if only we could get every bassist to restring with some kind of regularity great tone would be so much more common. Yeah, I know, they cost more than guitar strings. But it’s no shocker that Glen Fricker’s #1 bass recording tip was to just put some fresh nickel on there.

“Heavy Core Bass Strings are for bass players who tune down and dig in. We craft these strings with thicker core wires for standard feel and tonal definition. With Heavy Core Bass Strings, you can play with your natural attack and retain big, punchy fundamentals when tuning below E-Standard. Each Heavy Core Bass String set is optimized for a specific range of tunings: Heavy for Drop D and D Standard; Heavier for Drop C and C Standard; and Heaviest for Drop B and B Standard.”
