Gary’s Thoughts: Our customers have been loving these Clef Gut Jazz Bass Strings for years. The lowest strings have a nicely distinct but warm tone, and the silver windings help to achieve the mass necessary for the lower notes. This means that your bass will have more fundamental on the low end without the larger diameter.

Jack’s Thoughts: A great set of strings; good for any rockabilly, blues, jazz, or other old-style sound. The lower tension on this set makes a nice “playable” choice for those with a more aggressive style.
