I got the 100 Gauge. They are a little bit more stiff than pure blues. They have a good sound for rock/metal with a nice amount of warmth from the Nickel. Sound great on my Ray4. Review: Buscaba unas cuerdas que tuviera una buena tensión, sonido y en las que pudiera confiar, y como siempre DR jamás me falla. Siempre fui un tipo muy apegado a las cuerdas de acero inoxidable, pero después de probar estas jamas las dejaré. Son el sonido, tacto y todo lo que buscaba en unas cuerdas. No dudes en comprarlas si buscas algo bueno bonito y barato. ## Features - The nickelplated steel wrap wire produces a softer feel and warmer tone - The hexagonal core delivers an even, long lasting and loud tone with strong midrange - They're especially effective for fretless bass and funk - String Gauges: 40, 60, 80, 100 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0002FO8CE | | Body Material Type | Nickel Plated Steel | | Brand Name | DR Strings | | Coating Description | Uncoated | | Color | Silver | | Connector Type | / | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (186) | | Finish Type | Uncoated | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00600781000239 | | Instrument | Acoustic Bass Guitar | | Item Type Name | Strings | | Item Weight | 0.12 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | DR Strings | | Manufacturer Part Number | NLH-40 | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Model Name | Lo-Rider | | Model Number | NLH-40 | | Recommended Uses For Product | Bass guitar | | Set Name | Light 40-100 | | String Gauge | .04 | | String Material Type | Nickel | | UPC | 600781000239 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** DR Strings - **Colour:** Silver - **Instrument:** Acoustic Bass Guitar - **String gauge:** .04 - **String material type:** Nickel ## Images ![DR Strings NICKEL LO-RIDER™ - Nickel Plated Bass Strings: Light 40-100 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81SCiCiA-QL.jpg) ![DR Strings NICKEL LO-RIDER™ - Nickel Plated Bass Strings: Light 40-100 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71z+SLRc5KL.jpg) ![DR Strings NICKEL LO-RIDER™ - Nickel Plated Bass Strings: Light 40-100 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71tQy79UyJL.jpg) ![DR Strings NICKEL LO-RIDER™ - Nickel Plated Bass Strings: Light 40-100 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71oSFQy6u0L.jpg) ![DR Strings NICKEL LO-RIDER™ - Nickel Plated Bass Strings: Light 40-100 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/714ZB-D0UdL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by N***H on 25 August 2022* These are great strings from DR.
