{"title":"Power Steel Stainless Steel Bass","description":"\u003cp\u003ePower Steel Stainless is the bright end of our bass range. A stainless steel wrap over a high-tension hex core gives harder attack, more top-end presence and a tighter low end than nickel. It is the set for slap, for cutting through a loud band, and for any player who wants the string to be heard rather than felt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStainless is also the more durable wrap. It resists corrosion better than nickel-plated steel, which matters if you sweat or gig often.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eChoosing a set\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn four strings, .045–.105 is the standard and .040–.095 or .040–.100 are lighter. .050–.105 and .050–.110 add tension, for a firmer feel or lower tunings. Five-string players start at .045–.125, with .050–.130 for a tighter low B. Six-string sets run .030–.120 and .030–.125. Multi-scale (fanned fret) basses need their own sets because each string is a different length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eScale length matters as much as gauge: a wrong-length string either won't reach or puts winding over the nut. Most production basses take standard long scale. Measure from the ball end to the nut if you are unsure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eExposed core sets\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur exposed core sets were developed with Conklin Basses. The core sits bare where the string crosses the bridge saddle, which increases contact, strengthens the fundamental and adds articulation and sustain. We make a five-string .035–.135 and a seven-string .018–.135, both standard long scale with a 37.25\" playable length from ball end to taper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFour-string
