Oooooff, the new place is awesome, keep up with the great work bro, love your reviews
LaIguanaPez thank you for watching my man, and for the kind words. Massively appreciated! T
Holy shite, that is a stunning set-up Tyler!
Draxler Chronicles thank you my man! It’s a great place to be! T
Just got myself the RX 4NC set, super light and full of tone
I think the RXs are great strings! T
Is that the prescription package?
Congrats on the new job, Tyler!
As I wrote in an earlier comment, I'm a big fan of the Earnie Ball nickel strings. I'd say that their characteristics are quite similar to the La Bellas: warm, overall balanced tone with clarity and punch. And they are not too pricy here in germany.
The standard Daddarios for example have a much too dominant midrange, especially on passive basses imo.
I also used GHS Boomers for quite a while. They have more low end but lose their brightness quite fast.
Back when I played stainless steel strings I was impressed by the Elites Stadium strings from Bass Centre. Also very well balanced, but more aggressive tone in the high mids, typical for stainless steel. But I didn't really like the rough feel plus they seemed to wear out the frets much more. So I turned back to nickel.
Maybe I'll give the La Bellas a try. Sound quite good in the mix on your bass, especially with tone at 50%.
Nice review.
A comparison with other strings on the same bass would be awesome (but also quite a lot of work and expenses for sure)!
Thumbs up!
Congrats on the move and the job!!
Tyler Honsel Thank you my
man! Very much appreciated! T
Ho ly sh*t, this room looks amazing. Congrats, Tyler! Love your channel, and your personal approach to reviewing the instruments. Btw I recently bought a Höfner bass and I'm in love with that thing
Thanks Tyler much appreciated 👍😊
Paul Traynor thanks for watching as always Paul! T
They seem to have a really grizzly low end I’m loving these strings my man nice video
Thank you my man! I love ‘em! T
They sound great. Are they long scales on the PJ? La Bellas seem to have different scale lengths to other brands, or perhaps I'm totally wrong.
Hi Tyler, you mentioned at the end of this video that these strings are not for someone looking for lower tension. Their packaging contradicts that, but then I realize that’s a relative statement. So, in your opinion, do you consider them as flexible or more so than LaBella Flexible Flats, or D’Addario EXL rounds, or DR Sunbeams? I’m just lookin for something I can relate them to before I jump into the pool. Thanks!
Less flexible than LaBella LTFs, less flexible than Dunlop Super brights. They’re probably fairly flexible considering the gauge in comparison to other heavy gauges strings. I can’t remember the last time I played sunbeams or EXLs, but from memory I think these are a touch more flexible than the D’Addarios. T
@@TylerSpicer thanks for the quick reply! I failed to mention how great those sounded in your video. They make another gauge that is slightly lighter that I may opt for to put on my five string Rickenbacker.
@@deankastran1556 no problem at all! Thank you for watching. I have sets ranging from the A to D gauges and I really dig them all! T
I find players use stainless with maple necks for scooped mods…and nickels with rosewood for warm vintage mod boost.
i didnt really care for this video or the new studio. i like the bass reviews!
Levander Williams more bass reviews coming this week! T
Tyler, where in the UK can you get these strings ?
cheers
Bass direct stock them, they’re becoming difficult to find here though…T
@@TylerSpicer thanks for that, never thought of looking there, yip they're like hens teeth !
Need help, Mesa Walkaround or Big Block 750?
Jean what type of sounds are you going for? Having owned both of say Walkabout for a modern take on b15 type tones, big block for SVT rock type tones. T
@@TylerSpicer if it was up to you which one you would choose or like better?
Thank you!
Jean i prefer the Walkabout, one of my favourite bass amps ever! The big block is cool and versatile but the WA always wins imo, that flavour is just better and more characterful overall. T
@@TylerSpicer Thank you for all the info. You have a new follower!
Huh. These might be good strings for my Epiphone Thunderbird, which has tended to go disused for the past couple years...
I thought these strings were known for their light tension?
Woah! Did u move
ƏŁƏVƏŇ ŇMŇMƏX I have! 💪🏻😃
Great set up u got there
