Great Tone + Easy on Your Frets and Your Fingers!
I originally installed these on my semi-hollow body Gretch D6128 Thunderbass in an attempt to cut down on the string and fret noise I was getting with conventional strings. These not only reduced those issues considerably, the tone is fantastic! I have been using these on the Gretch now for over 18 months and have nothing but praise for these strings! The red color also adds a very unique look to the instrument and I am always getting compliments on the look! In addition to my D6128, I have also installed a set of these on my Candy Apple Red Fender Jaguar short scale bass with equally impressive results. The string itself is the time tested DR Sunbeam round core with the custom micro-coating applied. The same great tone you get from the Sunbeam string with the added benefit of reduced string and fret noise. I can't recommend these strings highly enough for anyone looking for a quality coated string. (Be sure to check out the photos I posted of my two guitars running Red Devils!)

Great sounding strings with the added bonus of color
These strings were reccomended to me by an acquaintance of mine during a bass clinic I attended recently. I ordered them right away.. All i can say is WOW! Excellent tone. It really brightened up my sound. I had gotten used to muddy sounding strings. I havent noticed a sticky feeling like others have mentioned, mine are silky smooth. Great playability. Was'nt too concerned about color, But When I installed them on my Ferrari red Carvin LB 70, I fell in love with my bass all over again. It looks stunning, and I get many comments about my bass now..Others have mentioned that the color wears off quickly, but I don't care, I'll used the color wear as a guage of when to change them..Then neon ones even glow brightly under a black light. Bass players don't get much credit so why not give them a show and something to talk about.

Excellent feel. I expected my fingers to slide 9ff the coating but that isn't close to how they feel. Almost like you have grippy gloves on; my fingers sort of stick like that which gives excellent control but the coating is very easy and non abrasive at the same time. I think this will help during long sessions and gigs. I read a review about quality control; I did not find this to be the case for my set. The coating is evenly applied. Finally, the look of these is amazing!!! I was going for a very Geezer Butler vibe with this bass as it is black, a Fender (not a Lackland, sigh) that has his signature emg pickups installed. The red strings were also his idea so I borrowed! Beautiful! Now I want coloured strings for all of my basses! If only the True Blues DR bass strings were K3 Blue!!!

I bought these strings after breaking the ones on my Wesley bass guitar. The colour is amazing, the sound is better than the stock ones, which is weird as the stocks weren't coated and these are. My only trouble was that the E string snapped as i was tuning it, i believe it being down to it being hand made and fairly cheap. Amazingly Amazon sent me a replacement string for free, it only took 1 day to arrive, no questions asked. I have now fitted all strings, they are a blast to use and sound more professional than i could have imagined. They are too good for £36.00, especially when the equivalent made by a well known brand which i wont name, was over £100.00!! Amazing i will definitely by Red Devils again, and will definitely use Amazon again.

3rd string was different red color, not like the other strings, and it didn’t fit on my guitar
