Using these D'Addario EPS165 bass guitar strings is easy. First, remove the old strings from your bass. Then, thread the new strings through the bridge and the tuning pegs. Tune the strings to your desired pitch. When playing, these strings will give you a great sound right away. As for maintenance, keep your bass in a dry place to prevent the strings from rusting.

Also, be careful when tuning the strings not to over - tighten them, as this can cause the strings to break.
