Review: DR bass strings - Good bass guitar strings Review: Awesome bass strings - I’ve bought DR strings a good few times over the years and thought I would try this particular gauge that were nickel wound. They sounded incredible and even one of my best mates who is an incredible bass player asked what had I done to my bad as it sounded so good. I said I had just put these strings on. This was fitted onto my Spector 5 string with a 3 band eq. Real killer growl and great sound for Jazz, funk, soul and rock if you adjust your settings. Highly recommend these and I am definitely buying some more. ## Features - The nickelplated steel wrap wire produces a softer feel and warmer tone - The hexagonal core delivers an even, long lasting and loud tone with strong midrange - They're especially effective for fretless bass and funk - String Gauges: 45, 65, 85, 105 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0002FO8CY | | Best Sellers Rank | 18,388 in Musical Instruments & DJ ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments & DJ ) 85 in Bass Guitar Strings | | Body Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Brand | DR Strings | | Brand Name | DR Strings | | Coating Description | nickel | | Coating description | nickel | | Colour | Silver | | Country of Origin | USA | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 255 Reviews | | Finish Type | Nickel Plated | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00600781000277 | | Instrument | Acoustic Bass Guitar | | Item Type Name | Strings | | Item Weight | 0.09 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | DR Strings | | Manufacturer Part Number | NMH-45 | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Model Name | DR Strings Lo-Rider Nickel Plated Bass Medium | | Model Number | NMH-45 | | Product Warranty | Na. | | Recommended Uses For Product | Bass guitar | | Set Name | NICKEL LO-RIDER™ Medium | | Sound Profile | Warm/Midrange | | String Gauge | Medium | | String Material Type | Nickel | | String gauge | Medium | | String material type | Nickel | | UPC | 600781000277 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** DR Strings - **Colour:** Silver - **Instrument:** Acoustic Bass Guitar - **String gauge:** Medium - **String material type:** Nickel ## Images ![DR Strings NMH-45 NICKEL LO-RIDER™ - Nickel Plated Bass Strings: Medium 45-105, Silver - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71QHpImVTOL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ DR bass strings *by A***D on 12 February 2026* Good bass guitar strings ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome bass strings *by B***H on 24 December 2024* I’ve bought DR strings a good few times over the years and thought I would try this particular gauge that were nickel wound.
