Description
If you’ve been down the rabbit hole of trying every boutique string set out there, sometimes it’s worth coming back to the strings that made D’Addario the standard in the first place. The EXL170 is the set most working bassists reach for without overthinking it — nickel-plated steel wrap wire wound on precision, digitally-controlled machines for a low end that’s tight and defined, not flabby, with enough top-end snap to cut through a mix without an EQ fight.
This listing gets you two full sets in one corrosion-resistant package, so you’re covered for a breakage during soundcheck or just stocking up so you’re never caught with dead strings before a session.
- Gauges: .045, .065, .080, .100 — a comfortable tension that still delivers a booming low end
- Round wound nickel-plated steel construction for that classic bright, articulate D’Addario voice
- Fits long scale basses up to 36 1/4″ scale length
- Manufactured in the U.S.A. on D’Addario’s proprietary machinery for consistent intonation set after set
- 2-pack packaging designed to resist corrosion until you’re ready to string up
Whether you’re laying down a groove in the studio or holding down the low end live, these are the strings that just work — no surprises, no compromises, just reliable tone night after night.
