Ernie Ball Bass 5 Slinky Super Long Scale Electric Bass Strings, 45-130

Ernie Ball's nickel wound super long scale electric bass strings are crafted from nickel - plated steel wrapped around a hex - shaped steel core wire. These strings are designed for 35' scale basses and offer a string length of 50' with a 38 1/2' taper. Each string delivers a bright and well - balanced tone. The set includes gauges of .045, .065, .085, .105, and .130, ensuring a wide range of sound possibilities for your bass guitar.

Using these Ernie Ball bass strings is straightforward. First, loosen the old strings on your 35' scale bass guitar and remove them. Then, thread the new strings through the bridge and the tuning pegs. Make sure to wind the strings around the pegs in the correct direction. When tuning, turn the pegs slowly to avoid over - tightening and breaking the strings. For maintenance, wipe the strings with a clean cloth after each use to remove dirt and sweat. This will help keep the bright tone and extend their lifespan. If you notice any signs of wear or the tone starts to dull, it's time to replace the strings.
