Fender 8060 Phosphor Bronze Acoustic Bass Strings

Love how amazing the cords sounds when I'm playing corridos tumbados. When I'm really slapping tht bass

I've used many sets of these on an Ibanez AEB-10E Acoustic-Electric Bass. They have as good of life as other brands in this category. I've also used Martin (made in Mexico), D'Addario, GHS, and Guild. I found that the Martins break easier than the other brands (A string), but only after they've been played many, many hours. If you change your strings like you're supposed to, you should have no problems with breakage with any of these brands, including Fender. My Ibanez was professionally set up with a bone saddle replacement. A rough spot on the saddle, playing outdoors, and/or playing style can affect string longevity. When I replace my strings at proper intervals, I never have string breakage problems with any brand.

I have bought many bass guitar strings in my day, never this bad. I couldn't even tune the strings to standard pitch without them snapping. I have been playing bass for 7 years now and I thought I could trust these strings. Don't fall for it like I did! These are the weakest strings I have ever purchased and the only good thing about them is their tone, that is all. DO NOT BUY THESE STRINGS!!! IT IS A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY!!!

Fender products are just plain superior to all others, in my opinion. I've been playing a bass for 51-years and have never been disappointed with Fender guitars as well as sterings and picks.

I really like the product, however, when I ordered it the web site said they were in stock but they were not. Had to wait an additional week for delivery.

I bought these strings three times in a row. Each time, when tuning the E string, it would break. Same string, same spot (within an inch of the tuning peg). It would never make it near E. The closest I got to E was D flat. I have never had this issue with any other strings I have purchased.
