Hi, I'm considering buying some DR coloured strings for my red Ibanez bass (my personal pic.)
Has anyone used these strings, and what colour do you think I should get?
They come in:
Red
Black
Blue
green
pink

Thanks,
Banny

It's gotta be the green.

We put the hot pink ones on my son's metallic gray Pbass Lyte. He plays a 5-string now, but pink on that dark metallic gray looked surprisingly cool.

By the time you've boiled them up once or twice in water and vinegar the colour is going to come off.
