The Tapewound Character: Warmth, Comfort, and Control
The D'Addario ETB92 Tapewound strings combine the depth and roundness of vintage tones with particularly comfortable playability. The black nylon winding, flattened and then polished, reduces roughness and limits sliding noise, making them an excellent choice for expressive bass lines, soul, reggae, jazz, pop grooves, or any situation where controlled attack and rich low-end thickness are desired.
For Which Basses and Bassists?
This set is designed for long scale basses and fits cleanly on most standard instruments. It is also very suitable for fretless basses thanks to its soft feel and warm response, appreciated for achieving a woody and singing tone. If you enjoy "flat-like" sensations without sacrificing the Tapewound character, this Medium 50-105 gauge offers a good balance between foundation, comfort, and sustain.
