Ey there, I'm switching over to bass from guitar (been playing 6 years) for a band I just joined. I'm gonna switch the strings from the bass I just ordered (Dean Z Metalman) since I haven't heard very good reviews for them, and would rather get a fewthing other than the stock ones they'll have anyways.

So I'm wondering what strings would be best for playing metal in drop C tuning. So far what I've been recommended are D'Addario, DR, and Ernie Ball.

I love Ernie Ball and Dean Markley on my Jackson DKMG, but not sure how good they'd be for a bass.
