Description
Every bassist has that one string that dies first — usually the fat one that takes the most abuse. The D’Addario XLB125 is a single .125 gauge nickel wound string, sold on its own so you’re not tossing a full set just to fix one dead spot in your low end.
- .125 gauge, nickel wound construction
- Round wound over a nickel-plated steel wrap for that bright, punchy XL tone with clear fundamentals
- Long scale — fits basses with scale lengths up to 36 1/4″
- Great for building custom gauge sets or just patching a broken string before a gig
- Made in the U.S.A. on D’Addario’s precision digitally-controlled winding machines
These are the same XL Nickel strings that show up on stages everywhere — precision wound for solid intonation and consistent output, string after string. If you’ve dialed in a set you love but one string always goes first, this is the practical fix. Also a cheap, useful stocking stuffer for the bassist who’s always running out of that one gauge at the worst possible time.
Keep a spare in your gig bag. A broken string mid-set is bad enough without scrambling to find the exact gauge you need.
