About this item

D'Addario XS Coated Bass Strings, Regular Light, Long Scale

XS Nickel Bass strings combine a premium nickel-plated wrap wire with an ultra-thin coating for a smooth feel, maximum life, and punchy, balanced tone. Designed for bassists who demand durability without sacrificing clarity or response. This 45-100 Regular Light gauge set is D'Addario's most popular gauge, providing a perfect blend of response and playability.

Features

• XS Nickel Bass strings combine a premium nickel-plated wrap wire with an ultra-thin coating for a smooth feel, extended life, and punchy, balanced tone
• Premium reformulated nickel-plated steel wrap wire used for XS bass strings features re-engineered core-to-wrap ratios, for a more versatile string which still maintains a familiar feel, plus accentuated harmonics
• NY High Carbon Steel cores allow XS bass guitar strings stay in tune better and offer greater break strength than standard bass strings
• XS bass sets have a code on the recyclable, resealable VCI bag, which you can register to earn Players Circle points
• XS bass guitar strings are made in the USA-drawn to D'Addario's exacting specifications at their New York production facility
