HI-DEF NEON Bass Guitar Strings (NPB-45)

The color is amazing, the pictures in the review doesn’t really do it justice. If you want Neon Pink, they fit the bill.Fit my Fender Squire Mini-P bass. I had to shorten them which wasn’t a problem. The top string needed to be stripped of the pink coating about a 1/2 an inch at the end in order to fit in the tuning peg to wind it.They seem to be nice quality. I’ve only played with them briefly. My first impression is they sound good, though I’d need more time for a proper review. I’ll try to report back at some point.Overall I’m satisfied.

Have had these on my bass for a couple of months now, great sound and they give my bass a cool look. I play for fun about 3-5 hours a week and haven’t seen much wear on the strings, would definitely buy again.

Strings were easy to put on and the package was labeled with which strings were what. The sound is pretty good but not as good as my nickel strings, however with that color you can’t beat it.

Love them

I was worried they’d feel coarse because of the coating but they are as smooth as butter. I’ve had them for some months now and play shows regularly so they’re starting to show some wear at the bridge where I pluck (I don’t use a pick) but they’ve otherwise been great! The UV reaction is BRIGHT! I liked them enough to buy a second set for my other bass.

They have a great sound! I don’t know how much durability they have, I did notice a little cut on one of the strings and I’ve been using it for two weeks now. Not a big rip but shows some wear.

I have been playing bass for 40 years and currently own 12 basses - fretted, fretless, 5 string, 8 string,each type can benefit from a particular choice of string. These DR Neons are a direct replacementfor any rock n'roll application. They sound like the DR Sunbeams or Ernie Ball Slinkys to my ears.The color coating is NOT indestructible! You will see some wear around the area you finger or pickover time (over the pickups of your bass)but it is minimal. They are somewhat "sticky" to the touch comparedto plain nickel steel but not overly so. I have these pink ones on a pink Precision Bass and the lookgets many compliments at gigs. I bought a blue set for my blue Jazz Bass but they were dogs out of thepackage - bad day at the DR factory I suppose! They lacked ANY edge or punch or sustain.This has not yet happened with the three sets of pink ones that have been on my Precision Bass overthe past two years.

Who else offers a neon pink string? They look and sound great on my white Yamaha bass. Easy to play and long lasting. Coated might not be your thing but having a little neon flair isn’t a bad thing.

So nice!

Se ven muy bien las cuerdas y se escucha nítido y claro

Fueron para un regalo y de momento quedo contenta..

Exactly what you think it should look like bright Neon colour really stands out

Just arrived this afternoon, so I've restrung my Epiphone EB3 and tried them out...perfect!!...look great against the Cherry Red body and play beautifully, not as hard on the fingertips (and I'm sure the fretboard) as regular roundwounds. I usually dont change strings on my basses unless I break one (which I havent done yet). so let's see how many years I can get out of these babies.
