Product Review
I have tried just about every bass string on the market and find these to be well balanced and great for slap as well as fingerstyle playing.
The strings feel lovely on the fingers and give great punch on my Warwick Thumb 5NT and 4 String Corvette.
For very aggressive playing the super light gauge would not be ideal and I might concede that you possibly lose a small degree of sustain and overall volume compared to a heavier string.
They are of course available in heavier gauges so this ought not to be a large problem.
There may be a slight perceived loss of metallic punch when using these coated strings which may not suit metal players tastes but who knows!?
I currently use elixir strings on all my guitars from acoustics, electrics and basses.
I would not go back to anything else.
I hope this is of some help to those reading!

Superb strings
In my opinion these strings are the best ever, soft and shiny, manageable and robust at the same time.
I tried them some time ago and since then they have been my favorites.
The best bass strings ever played.
PRO: brilliance, soft to the touch, excellent coating, superb.
AGAINST: price maybe too high, compared to other strings of the same quality, but they last longer than others, we must recognize it. So it's worth it
I highly recommend it

Pure Brilliance
Fantastic Strings
These strings are briliant, very clear and punchy sound. I use these as part of a 7 string set of strings and i can tell you that they sound just as good as any uncoated string and last me at least 5 times as long. All they need to do now is offer 7 string sets and i'll be happy

Best. Strings. Ever.
I am a hard rock player using an Ibanez sr-500 and there's really nothing to say about these strings. In my opinion they are one of the best(if not the best) out there. Only con could be the price but they deserve it!
