Gauges: 45-65-80-100-130
These D’Addario XS Nickel Bass Strings are designed for players who want extended string life, modern punch, and a smooth feel without sacrificing clarity or response. This Super Long Scale set is built specifically for 5-string basses requiring extended winding length, while retaining D’Addario’s most popular Regular Light gauge.
A premium nickel-plated steel wrap wire is paired with D’Addario’s ultra-thin XS coating, delivering long-lasting performance while preserving articulation, dynamics, and harmonic detail. Re-engineered core-to-wrap ratios enhance versatility and maintain 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. The added low B remains defined and controlled, making this set a reliable choice for extended-scale instruments across a wide range of playing styles.
