I have a Slamer bass guitar, its got junky old strings. I wanna get new ones to really bring out the dual pick up tone.

What 4 strings do you guys recommend? Im thinking Ernie Ball strings, but idk.

I use Ernie Ball Regular Slinkies on both my guitar and my bass, and I've been quite happy with them.

Awesome, I heard that the DR strings are very good, and that the Ernie ball ones are too,  D'Addario I heard doesnt last long, and that it needs retuning often.

hmm...guess it just depends then :P

I've been playing for 12 years, and have always love D'Addario :P

Strings are more of a preference to the player rather than an audience most of the time.

Well guys, I think im actually getting some Rotosound strings, supposedly Geddy Lee uses them, so I dont think I can go wrong, I like the sound of his bass. Thx for all of the help. Ill look at all of the recommendations, I may get the DRs
