Short Scale Bass Guitar Strings
Strings for Short-Scale Bass Guitar
Visit Strings and Beyond to outfit your pride and joy with short-scale electric bass strings that are big on performance. A short-scale bass is more than just an instrument for musicians with smaller hands and arms. They are slightly heavier than other bass scales and produce a classic “fat” sound, giving your band a full backbeat. Small-scale bass guitars are also great for people transitioning from a six-string electric. It’s no wonder legends such as Sir Paul McCartney, Phil Lesh, Bill Wyman, Tina Weymouth and Justin Meldal-Johnsen take the short route.
Best Strings for Short-Scale Basses
To get those benefits, though, you’ll need high-quality strings designed for the length. We carry an array of short-scale strings to get that sound that’s perfect for your style. We have short-scale flatwound bass strings for a vintage dark sound and roundwound electric bass strings to give the instrument more brightness. Get nickel-plated strings, stainless steel strings and black nylon strings in several gauge setups. We even have Monel short-scale strings for classic jazz and short-scale 5-scale bass strings for an ultra-low thump.
As an authorized dealer of leading bass string brands such as D’Addario, Pyramid, Rotosound, Ernie Ball and Thomastik-Infeld, we either have the right short-scale strings in stock or can get them. With our low prices, exclusive promotions and free same-day U.S. shipping on qualifying orders over $35, you’ll pay less to get strings that talk the talk.
