D'ADDARIO XTB45130 45-130 REGULAR LIGHT 5-STRING, LONG SCALE, XT NICKEL COATED BASS STRINGS
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.
D’Addario XT strings feature high carbon steel cores with an advanced corrosion resistance treatment on every string in the set, giving you enhanced break resistance and unyielding pitch stability—all while preserving the tone and feel of your favorite uncoated strings. These strings are made to stay, with uncompromising performance that never fades away.
