New Gear Review: Dean Markley Signature Series Strings

Dean Markley’s Signature Series are strings for bass guitar. These use nickel-plated steel slowly wound over a hex core with a unique core-to-wrap ratio. By crafting the wrap wire over a steel hex (six-sided) core, the wrap wire is able to provide 100%, intimate contact with the core to insure maximum transfer of tone and sustain. Electroplated with pure nickel allows for better tone and output plus adds durability by resisting oxidation.
