Description
If you’re the type who changes strings every other gig, this 12-pack is built for your workload. Each set is Elixir’s Nickel Plated Steel with NANOWEB coating, gauged Light/Medium 45-105 for long scale bass, giving you a full case of consistent tone without hunting down singles between shows.
The nickel construction leans warm and rounded but keeps enough clarity up top that your lines cut through a mix instead of getting buried in the low end. There’s a healthy mid presence too, which helps whether you’re locking in with a kick drum or carrying a melodic line solo.
What really sets these apart is the coating philosophy. Elixir wraps the entire string – not just the surface – so grime, sweat, and stage funk can’t work their way into the winding gaps. That means:
- Rich, rounded tone that stays clear set after set
- A smooth feel under the fingers with noticeably less squeak sliding up the neck
- Strings that hold up under aggressive picking or slap technique without going dead early
- Tone life that outlasts uncoated strings and most other coated brands
For gigging and touring bassists, that reliability translates directly into fewer mid-tour string changes and more predictable tone night after night. Buying by the dozen just means you’re never caught scrambling before a soundcheck.
