The XS Nickel Bass combine a nickel-plated steel winding with an ultrathin coating film to meet the demands of bassists who play loud, often, and long. The result: a clear attack, solid lows, present mids, and definition that remains stable over time, even after intense rehearsals. Designed for 6-string multiscale basses (fanned frets), this Regular Light 32-130 set offers an excellent balance between flexibility, control, and harmonic response, whether you lay down modern lines, percussive slap, or more subtle patterns.Technical specifications
