Questions and answers

What gauge are these strings?
They are medium gauge, the most common size for standard-tuning 4-string basses. That suits most players without a setup change.
Stainless steel or nickel — which should I pick?
Stainless steel is brighter and more aggressive; nickel is warmer and easier on fingers. Choose stainless if you want cut and punch.
Will these fit my bass?
They fit standard long-scale 4-string electric basses. Check your scale length and bridge before buying for short-scale or 5-string instruments.
How often should I change them?
Stainless roundwounds lose brightness gradually; most players change them every few months with regular play. Wipe them down after use to extend life.
Is $24.74 a good price?
It is the lowest new price among the 5 stores listed as of November 7, 2026. Compare against other stainless sets before buying.
