interesting... I've been playing bass for 40+ years. tried everything in that time. put together a custom set of dAddario for my 5 string and stuck with them for a long time. after friends kept pressuring me I switched to DR Hi Beam for about a year. they were terrible IMO. simply didn't last. I change strings every month, but these would last about a week. went back to Smith's & have been happy ever since.

YMMV
