D’Addario XS Nickel Plated Steel Bass Strings Long Scale 5-String 45–130

The DAddario XS Nickel Plated Steel Bass Strings Long Scale 5-String 45-130 are suited to bassists who need long-lasting strings with clear balanced response. Designed specifically for 5-string basses this regular light set adds a low B string to DAddarios most popular gauge giving you extended range without changing the feel youre used to. Each string combines a reformulated nickel-plated steel wrap with an ultra-thin XS coating. You get a smooth comfortable surface under your fingers while the coating helps protect against wear and corrosion. The updated core-to-wrap ratio enhances versatility and brings out stronger harmonics so your tone stays punchy and defined across styles. At the centre the NY High Carbon Steel core improves tuning stability and increases break strength. That means fewer mid-set surprises and more consistent performance. Every set is made in the USA to exact specifications and comes in a recyclable resealable VCI bag with a code you can register for Players Circle points.
