Bass Strings

Do you make extra long 4-string bass sets?

Quick Answer

Yes. Our extra long 4-string sets are NR45100XL, NR45105XL and NR50105XL in Power Wound Nickel, plus the David Ellefson Signature DE45105XL. Extra long is about 38" of usable winding length.

Extra long 4-string sets (about 38" usable winding length, ball end to taper):

  • NR45100XL Power Wound Nickel .045–.100 Light
  • NR45105XL Power Wound Nickel .045–.105 Medium Light
  • NR50105XL Power Wound Nickel .050–.105 Medium
  • DE45105XL David Ellefson Signature .045–.105 Medium

Extra long 5- and 6-string sets are also available in Power Wound Nickel (including taper wound), Foundations Nickel and Foundations Stainless.

Extra long sets are for 35" and longer basses and many string-through-body basses. Some 35" basses work with long scale strings, so if you're unsure, measure your current string from the ball end to the taper.
