Review: Best for fretless (and some fretted) bass guitars - Have used these for about 40+ years and chrome is easier to clean and lasts way longer than traditional roundwound strings. I’m using this 32 to convert my seldom used 5-string basses to E-A-D-G-C so my intonation will hold up to the higher notes. PS: these are long-scale (34-35”) strings. Still shopping for a short-scale version of chromes.
Review: D'Addario Chromes!!! - I bought this string because I've got a 5 string bass and recently bought a 4 string pack of Chromes to try them on my local store (They didn't have the 5 string pack). So I ordered this one to complete. Experience: EXCELENT!!! They sound amazing, just the tone I was looking for, very warm, very punchy, not lots of bright, the kind of sound that you will hear from a Pino Palladino bass line and the smooth feel completes a whole new thing. This is my string set from now on! The seller did a very fast shipping and the product came just as described.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Usually for high sixth string
*by B***. on October 31, 2022*

Bumped a classic 4 set down a string and then added this as a high 5th string on my 5 string fretless. Great arrangement for bass chords.
