Review: Great Sound & Quality - Sounded great. I have a 4 string PJ bass by Jackson, the strings were easy to install and sounded great. the first few tunes sounded kinda strange because i wasnt used to this thickness and i think it took a while to stay in tune, but after use these sound great and stay in tune for days. (As for the photos yes I know i tuned the top and bottom string backwards)
Review: Chunky but FUNKY! - Man these are some fun strings! I mean it's only a few bucks to mess around with such a fat sound. If you are not having fun you can always go back to your old strings and you are only out a few bucks. These have all the tension of a deep dark beast, but they still bend. They are indeed slinky. The have held up to tuning after I tuned them initially once or twice. They look great especially that chunky wound E, I played flat strings for a long time. These look heavier and fatter but they do play slinky. With clean bright highs and with moody punchy lows.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What’s the length in inches of these strings?**
A: Unless otherwise noted, all of our bass strings are 48" in length and designed for basses with a scale length of 34".

**Q: What are good for rock?**
A: Slinky are basically made for Rock! Bright, but also well rounded tones. Hope that helps.

**Q: Will these work on rbx jm2 John Myung signature?**
A: Hi there, If the scale length of the bass is around 34 or 35 inches it should work. Also John Myung's name appears on the back as an endorsed artists for the strings. Hope this helps!

**Q: Which set would be good for drop B?**
A: A larger string gauge will produce higher tension. When you drop your tuning that higher tension will help retain note clarity and power. Go for the Power Slinky or buy an even larger 5 string set and use only the biggest 4 strings. You'll have to adjust the truss rod and bridge afterwards.
