XT Nickel bass strings offer enhanced strength, better
pitch stability and longer-lasting performance than standard bass guitar
strings. The XT coating provides advanced corrosion resistance, while
still retaining the bright tone and natural feel of an uncoated bass
string. Beneath the coating, XT Nickel bass guitar strings are
constructed with a NY Steel core, nickel-plated steel wrap wire, and
Fusion Twist technology, resulting in added resilience and tonal
versatility, excellent for a wide range of musical styles. Made for
5-string basses, this 45-130 Regular Light gauge set takes our most
popular gauge and adds a low B-string.
