Funky Dunky Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 (edited) Just got a Sub Ray 4 and will be throwing some new strings on it. Dunlop Super Brights are my preferred choice for my Squier, and they sound great for slappery, but I just wanted to ask Sterling and Stingray owners if there is a particular type of string you feel gets the best version of 'that' trademark tone from your bass? thangvermuch.

stingrayPete1977 Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 I always like ebmm strings on an ebmm to be honest, I use them on my other basses anyway failing that I'll use anything that is free! I used elites four many years and still like them now as a cheaper option sometimes. Enjoy the new bass mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icunningham Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 I have Ernie Ball cobalts on my stingray, they do sound awesome but I will be going back on to elixirs after these are done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTUK Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 I used Elites on a MM for years and they were great. Not sure they are the same string now and even tho I don't play a MM anymore, I didn't like them on my current basses. Nothing so much wrong with them, just that they didn't do it for me. I tend to like decent metal in strings and I think this has been a varible laterly, IMO, as cost is an issue. So, I go for clean sets that feel nice to the touch.. Clean strings=clean sound for me.
