Using these D'Addario ECB81 Chrome Bass Guitar Strings is easy. Just install them on your long - scale bass guitar like you would with any other strings. When you play, you'll notice their smooth feel which makes fingering a breeze. As for maintenance, after each use, wipe the strings down with a soft cloth to remove sweat and dirt.

If you're not using the guitar for a long time, it's a good idea to loosen the strings a bit to relieve tension. And always store your guitar in a proper case to protect the strings from damage.
