miles'tone Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 (edited) Great stuff! 😄 Funny, good presentation and visuals, no filler and just the right length. Well done! I prefer the Dunlops myself. I like the natural crunch they have over the others, although overall I thought the Ernie Balls had the edge on the chordal playing. Just. Interestingly, from your demo here, I mostly liked the Rotos more than the Ernie Balls whereas in 'real life' It's the opposite for me. 🤔 Edited August 8, 2020 by miles'tone 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bart Funk Bass Posted August 9, 2020 Author Share Posted August 9, 2020 Thanks! I'll also combine both as EB vs Roto 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulThePlug Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 (edited) Nice.. could maybe do with some observation notes... Got some Dunlop Stainless Steel Strings, I notice the outer windings are a fair bit thinner than say the Rotosound Nickels on a 105 E. The thinner windings of the dunlops feel a lot smoother to play... How do the windings of the Ernie Balls compare? Would you know if this is a Dunlop v Rotosound thing? or a Stainless v Nickel thing? Thanks... Edited August 9, 2020 by PaulThePlug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bart Funk Bass Posted August 9, 2020 Author Share Posted August 9, 2020 For me it's subjective thing. I make tone test only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chienmortbb Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 I found the EB Cobalt and the Rotos most to my taste. They both seemed to be bright enough but still have enough low end to enhance the subtle passages. The DRs in particular were not to my liking. Incidently I was listening on my new Panasonic RPHTX90N headphones wired review to follow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yourfurryfiend Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I really like these comparisons, great presentation. I'm debating which DR set to try. I very well could be the only one, but I assume the order goes from left first and the colour change on the other set is a grey-out and not highlight. Is that right?

Bart Funk Bass Posted September 17, 2020 Author Share Posted September 17, 2020 Thanks! The highlighted one is the one that is playing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hellzero Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Funny because the Ernie Ball Super Slinky are always my favourite strings in your "demos" and I hated them on my Le Fay Remington Steele 6 RHT CC CAP Big Block (what a name, I know) as these were the strings fitted when I bought it. This is what Reiner and Meik fit at the factory. But strangely, I quite like them on fretted basses. Go figure. Great tests you're doing : simple and effective ! Straight to it. 👌 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
