Review: Ideal Bass Strings - I've used these strings for many years after trying a fair variety of other brands. When new they don't have that excessively bright tone of new round wound strings, so if you like that sound and are prepared to keep buying new sets, then go with that. When I used to get non coated strings the tone would start out very bright and then just keep getting worse for ever. What I like about nano web is they start out with the sound of a slightly played in set and then pretty much stay that way forever. I have mostly gone several years between changes and even then it is because eventually they break, as do all strings in the end, but they still sound fine up to that point. They are quite an expensive string in the first place but they last way longer and I'm sure they cost less in the long run.
Review: Long lasting smooth feel - Long lasting coated string. Like a thin condom wrapping the entire string. Will break faster if your an aggressive player. But very strong Strings last much much longer that normal strings. Always worth the money. Feel like compression wound stings too. Very smooth. Easy slides and articulation. Sound is good.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: will these be long enough for a ‘through body’ set up? or are they ‘top load’ only?**
A: I use these strings on my Musicman Stingray 4 and Stingray 5 basses. Both are long scale basses at 34.5" (88cm) from nut to bridge. When stringing either bass, the longest string from bridge to nut is the D string. I tend to cut around 4" (10cm) off the length of this string to create three turns on the binding post of the tuner for the D string. The other strings require more than this to be cut to suitable length. So, in summary, at around 52" length uncut, I'd say these strings are likely to be long enough for your 'through body' bass. BTW: these strings have fantastic depth of tone, really cut through the mix, plus really fast and smooth to play for round wounds. Oh, and they keep their tone for yonks. But that's one of the main selling points for Elixir of course. Hope that's of some help.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reliable and long lasting
*by S***G on 2 May 2024*

Great string, the nanoweb coating has been a big leap forward since the brands previous coating they used. Almost undetectable, seemingly impenetrable and have a rounded ,crisp tone to them. I can get well over 12months of heavy use out of these strings until I notice they’re ready for a change .
