Elixir 13436 Stainless Steel Nanoweb Coated 5th Electric Bass Guitar String - Light B, Long Scale 130 produces bright tone with rich, deep low end.
Working closely with the global bass community, we asked 4000+ players what they needed from a bass string, and recruited 1000+ players for field trials to help improve the playability and our protective NANOWEB® Coating. Inspired by our field trials, Elixir Strings entire line of round wound electric bass strings now benefits from a NANOWEB Coating made exclusively for bass guitar. With playing experience also enhanced by optimized string tension profiles, flexibility and feel, our Stainless Steel Bass Strings deliver:
Bright tone with deep lows
Smooth, natural feel with enhanced grip(*Compared to original NANOWEB Coating) and reduced finger squeak
Greater durability and response, even during hard-hitting attacks
Consistent performance from gig-to-gig
Longer tone life than any other bass string, uncoated or coated
Elixir Strings is the only coated string brand to protect the entire string with an ultra-thin coating, keeping gunk out of the gaps between the windings. With consistent performance from gig-to-gig, Elixir Stainless Steel Bass Strings remove the hassle and expense of frequent string changes.
