These are single replacement strings for the low B and high C of a 5- or 6-string electric bass, sold one at a time. They use nickel-plated steel wrap over a hex core with Elixir's NANOWEB coating, the same thin polymer film used across the Elixir line. The coating is the main draw: it slows the buildup of sweat and grime that dulls plain bass strings, so the tone holds longer between changes. That suits players who gig or record often and want to avoid swapping strings constantly. Against uncoated nickel strings they feel slightly slicker and cost more per string, and some players find the coating mutes the top-end zing a little.

Bass players who use Elixir coated strings generally report they last noticeably longer and keep a usable tone well past the point where uncoated strings go dead. Some miss the extra brightness of fresh uncoated strings and note the coating changes the feel.
This is a single Elixir string for electric bass, made from nickel-plated steel with NANOWEB coating technology. It is sold as a single string in a pack of 1, and it is the 5th or 6th string of a bass set.
