TRBboy Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Big shout out to Jim Dunlop Guitar Products! I've been using Super Brights for probably around the last 10 years, they've been a revelation to me; REALLY easy to play, with lower tension than anything else out there, without feeling floppy, GREAT tone, and they last a super long time! I've never had any problems with them, however in December I was stringing my bass and the cores in a couple of the strings snapped. I contacted Jim Dunlop, and they sent me not one but TWO replacement sets! Now that's what I call customer service! 😊👌❤️ 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uncle psychosis Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 I absolutely love the nickel wound super brights. They were a revelation when I found them. I do wonder if the name puts people off. I don't think they're particularly bright at all. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretmeister Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 I've just put a set of the steels on and they are far less bright than I expected - in a very good way. Nicer feel under the fingers than D'addarios too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I completely agree, it's a really stupid bit of branding! 😅 I find the initial brightness dulls fairly quickly, and then they just sound sweet and consistent for AGES. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That slightly lower tension than most strings just makes them feel super easy to play 👌 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretmeister Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 They seem to have more low end than many steels as well. It's almost a shame that I'm currently without a band! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretmeister Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 ... and then I remember, no arguments, no organisation, more sleep... And It's not a shame anymore! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely, I run the 40-120's on my 5, and despite them being light gauge and low tension, they sound huge! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
