DEAN MARKLEY Bass Strings SR 2000 5-String Light 44-125

Description

Dean Markley makes these strings with a unique approach to compound winding. With the exception of strings smaller than .050, all other strings are made by building up their mass with increasingly smaller gauge wires. The winding directions are reversed between layers to "crosshatch" the covers and make the string smoother. Another important factor is the "core to cover ratio," which varies from time to time, achieving the right mix for the best playability and durability. The perfect mix of mass, tension, and a host of other engineering marvels results in massive sound and high-performance, plenty of tone, resonance, and sustain.
