The Warwick Black Labels are just the strings for some grooving metal sounds. Combined with a Bass with active Humbuckers these strings provide a very strong sound with strong mid-range, alot of bass and some high-range.

The sound could be best described with a harley davidson's roar , but can also produce some decent mellow sounds, depending on your finger-style playing. The slap sounds aren't very convincing, the strings lack a decent portion of high-range for that.

For it's price of around 30 bucks these strings are a good alternatie solution to higher priced DR strings, but offer about the same sound.

Great Strings

Captain Codpiece 05.04.2022

I've used warwick black label strings since the late 90s back when they were yellow label.

great tension and the tapered B string allows for a clearer B string tone, I cant play 5 without a tapered B any more.

Langer Halt

Diese Saiten sind super. Jeder Saitenspieler, egal ob Gitarre oder Bass, kennt das Problem, dass Saiten jeden Tag anders klingen. Will man im Studio einen gleichmäßigen Sound, muss man mindestens Täglich die Saiten wechseln.

Nicht mit den "Black Label". Die Mega-Brillianz von ganz frischen Saiten verlieren die zwar auch, aber nach ein, zwei Tage halten sie den Klang sehr ehr lange. Es ist auch nach einem halben Jahr noch eine Freude mit den Dingern zu Slappen. Die meisten anderen Saiten, die ich zwischen den Fingern hatte, waren nach ein paar Monaten nur noch zum dumpfen Walken zu gebrauchen.

Die "Black Label" sind sehr rauh, also nicht für empfindliche Hände, und beim Umstieg auf diese Saiten wirken sie zuerst unangenehm, aber der Sound hält. Manche mögen lieber günstige Saiten öfter wechseln, ich mag lieber Saiten die konstante Leistung abgeben.
