The price, man!
Now, I'm not a snob with regard to the bass guitars and I'm not a person willing to spend too much money for stuff either.
I got these from Thomann for free when I bought a cheap but solid HB jbass and one of the strings was defective, yes an entire set for one string (props to Thomann for that, their service is incredible). These strings were considerably better than the stock cheapo strings. For the price I find them very usable and reasonably long-lasting, although they'll obviously lose their brightness after some time (like any other strings...), I'm using this set for two months now and it is still playable.
There may be better strings out there but the price/performance ratio of these is unbeatable. Personally, I see no reason to buy some expensive Daddarios that last about as long as these, when you can get 4 sets of the HB strings for the same price.
I'm certainly going to be buying these exclusively from now on.

You can't beat these
For the price they are sold, it's an absolute bargain. A breath of fresh air for any needing bass with years old strings. Do yourself (and your bass) a favor and grab a bunch of 'em, they are nice to have around.

Value for money with a good tone
Bass strings are too expensive. This is a fact.
So when i saw these listed for under £5 a set I was going to give them a fair crack and i am delighted to say that they have not disappointed!
I installed these on my P-Bass and the sound of them is good and bright. There is plenty of string length to install them easily and seem to be holding their tone ok.
I will not be going back to spend £20+ on strings now that I know these do the business. You should do the same.

Finally
As a beginner on the bass after many years on guitar, i wanted to have a back up set of strings. However going to the big box stores the prices were out of hand! Some sets were as much as $35! These are a fraction of the price, feel good and sound good right out of the package. For less than half the price of the big box store for 1 set, I ordered 3 sets. Can’t see me needing more for a long, long time!

Great strings even if you don't see the price
I have tried a LOT of string brands over time. Let me put it this way: if all musicians were rational, string brands like Elixir, D'Addario, Ernie Ball would go out of business.
Pros:
- very cheap
- sounds good
- lasts long as any other string
Cons:
- limited range of string gauges

twangy twang twang.
Inexpensive... but actually decent quality,.. Have been using them for 2 months now... Though I don't expect too much longevity...
I bought them to to replace very old ones on an old, seldom Played acrylic bodied Wesley bass...
Ding dong... delighted with the tone... have started playing the Wesley now more than my Jackson..
So... cheap... decent... can't complain...
And worth picking up a set or two to have for back up... you can't afford not to at this price.

Süper
Fiyatına göre gayet başarılı teller, günde 5-6 saat çaldığım halde hemen eskimedi. Bu fiyata göre bence mükemmel. Tonu da gayet güzeldir. Tavsiye ederim.

a tiny bit bright
I bought these strings and will keep buying them, well made, well packed, not a single oxydation spot (which i found often with other brands...). concerning sound they are a little on the bright side, but I like them anyway.
For this price it is an absolute no brainer, if you buy the wrong gauge, just buy another one of the correct gauge and you will still have spent less that one pack of whatever other brand....

No complaints
Better than the Warwick bass strings. I don't know how long these will sound good for, but for the price I'm sure it's worth it. Recommended.
