Gauges: 45-65-80-100-130
D'Addario XS Nickel 5-string bass strings are designed for players who want long string life, modern punch, and a smooth feel without the muted response often associated with coated strings.
This set uses a premium nickel-plated steel wrap wire combined with D’Addario’s ultra-thin XS coating, delivering extended life while preserving clarity, articulation, and dynamic response. Re-engineered core-to-wrap ratios enhance versatility and harmonic detail while maintaining a familiar, balanced feel under the fingers.
Built on NY High Carbon Steel cores, XS bass strings offer improved tuning stability and greater break strength than standard bass strings—ideal for demanding players and extended playing sessions. This 45–130 Regular Light gauge set adds a solid, well-defined low B string, making it a reliable choice for modern 5-string basses across a wide range of styles.
Each set comes packaged in a resealable, recyclable VCI bag to protect the strings before installation and includes a Players Circle code for registration.
