Designed to give Paolo Gregoletto a bigger, bolder tone, these Hybrid Wound Nickel Bass Strings are made with alternating nickel and steel windings with a nickel outer wrap to tap into the unique tonality of both materials. Nickel layers provide a big, punchy low end while the steel layers allow you to cut through the mix with an aggressive midrange. Boosted by steel and tamed by nickel, the top end is pronounced yet musical. Under the fingers, Hybrid Wound Bass Strings are smooth and comfortable to play. From tone to touch, you won't find a more exceptionally balanced set of bass strings. “I've been using Dunlop strings for a while now. When they came to me with these Hybrid Wound Bass Strings, I immediately made them a part of my setup. If you want to get the perfect rock or metal bass tone, these are the strings to use!” —Paolo Gregoletto
