Webstrings Low B?

[xbassman]

I know a few guys on here use Webstrings.

I have used them, but not with the low B.

 

I need to order a few 5 string sets since my band is playing a bunch of tunes that need low B. (I already have 2 extra 4 banger sets )

 

Can anybody here tell me if the stainless steel Webstrings low B is tight?

Or the nickle version for that matter. I normally prefer steel though.

 

I am thinkin' webstrings for the $$.

If money wasn't an issue I would probably pick up a few sets of the Roto BEAD strings cause I really like the Roto bite.

Sorry, I can't help. I bought a 5'er set for one of my basses in BEAD.

 

Good luck.

 

Yo.

IMO the nickel is very good in both tone and feel in both the light and medium gauges.

I think I'll probably order both nickel and steel.

 

Heck their cheap enough anyway and I am one of those guys that HATES dead strings.

You and me both! I like the sound of the steels--a nice zingy snarl without being overly clicky clacky. They have seemed a bit sticky to me at times but not too bad overall.
