Description
SLAP HAPPY WEED WACKERSSlap Happy Weed Wackers provide the qualities of natural gut strings without the drawbacks.
This new set has a STEEL CORE in ALL 4 strings!!!
Compatible with magnetic pickups!!!
The NEW Steel Core set features a new high-strength nylon coating over a braided multi-strand steel core.
This is the HIGHEST TENSION set we offer.
The higher tension results in more volume and greater note articulation
making them great for
finger picking styles as well as slapping.
These strings produce a rich, warm tone with a nice percussive click. They sound great acoustic or amplified and work well with the bow with no prep work to the strings. The metal core makes them compatible with magnetic pickups.

What are the advantages of synthetic gut?
Cost-
Our strings cost less than 1/4th the price of a natural gut set.
Stability-
Our synthetic material holds pitch under varying climate conditions much better than natural gut, which expand and contract with changes in temperature and humidity.
Lifespan-
A typical gut set lasts 6-12 months. Our synthetic strings are guaranteed never to fray or break. One set will last a lifetime!

Just a quick note to let you know I got my strings yesterday. Thanx for shipping so fast! Strung them up last nite, and YES!- the tone and volume I was looking for from the E and A string! Clearly superior to the regular Slap Happy's!!! Your feedback has been left. Thanx again and God Bless.
Now a quick comment on the sound... They are surprisingly warm, mellow sounding strings... and yes you can hear the gut sound, particularly in the upper register during slides. And they bow superbly, I will never go back to alloy.
The overall response of these strings is much better than I've encountered with other wacker type strings... The G is quick and the response is warm, defined with very good articulation... The attack is thick like a gut but a bit more defined.
That being said the overall balance of the strings in terms of string to string and overall amplitude is quite remarkable. Playing pizz was a very satisfying experience...
What a delightful response these strings have to the bow with no prep work to the string at all! These impart a sweetness that is reminiscent of "early music"...
You have succeeded very handily. I would definitely recommend your strings over the other wackers out there without hesitation as they are the most musical I've encountered in this class
.
I love these strings! I play all kinds of jazz and they sound big and come quite close to gut or older mariachi basses! Thank you very much. I want to order two more sets- continue the good work. These strings are not just for slapping- and to be honest- I think they are way too cheap! Thank you very much. All the best.
Just a quick note to let you know I got my strings today. I strung them up and-WOW!!! They sound really good!!
If I really dig in and snap these strings, they are very responsive, even the E!!!
Thanx for going above and beyond!!! Your strings get an endorsement from me anytime I can give one!!!

I bought some strings a week or so ago and i just wanted you to know they are the BEST thing EVER!!! I can not believe the sound! Its like butter ~THANK YOU and expect to get more in future for my other bass.
I Love the Slap Happy high tension strings I received. The D rings like a bell with sustain till Tuesday, the G is nice and loud. The E and A are louder than the metal strings that came with the bass. I was worried that the "gut tone" color would look too yellow but they look GREAT!
Just thought you would like to know.
