Review: Great strings! - Great strings. Easy on the hands, good punch with relaxed highs. Recommend trying them out.
Review: Best nickel strings out there! - I have been using these nickel Lo Riders for a long time on a bunch of different basses and they always seem to be able to cut through the mix whether it be a modded jazz bass or a Spector with an active circuit. These strings are wildly popular for a reason, they provide the perfect mix of mids and highs most players look for in a string and sound fuller and last alot longer than the D'Addarios and ER slinkys I have tried. These strings make fingerstyle more enjoyable, they are smooth and very touch sensitive. I liked these so much that I started to buy them more than my beloved Hi Beams for my active bass because of the rounder sound and less harsh highs. There are very few bad revies for these DR's on the web and DR is always a quality brand. I may try the steel Lo Riders soon on my 5'er to compare the sound difference. desertcart has the best prices on bass strings as well as Prime shipping, so buying these is a no brainer.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent strings.
*by D***P on November 3, 2012*

Don't really care for SS strings so I was glad when I found out that DR made Lo Riders in a nickel wrapped version. Not as rough on the fingers and less grind than SS strings. Tone is excellent, pop and slap never sounded better lol, however fingerstyle sounds great as well. Nice clear tone, not too bright and a little more punchy in the lows/darker than the run of the mill SS strings. These strings replaced an old set of GHS Boomers and while the Lo Riders are a bit rougher than the GHS Boomers, the tone and overall feel are much better. I think they find the perfect balance between the SS and nickel feel, with GHS Boomers being on the very smooth side and Rotosound 66's SS being on the extreme rough side. These strings are a bit pricier than the more well known brands ie D'adario, Ernie Ball, GHS etc, however imo these strings are worth every penny.
