D'Addario XTB45100 Bass Nickel Plated Steel Regular Light Long Scale strings combine our most popular electric bass guitar alloy with an advanced corrosion resistance treatment on every string in the set, preserving the natural tone and feel of uncoated strings.

XT bass strings employ D'Addario's proprietary high-carbon steel core and fusion twist technology, ensuring that they play easier and stay in tune better, even under the heat of a live performance. XT bass strings boast nickel-plated windings with enhanced magnetic properties for increased output and enhanced dynamic range.

XT bass strings also feature D'Addario's thinnest and most durable coating yet. This nearly imperceptible coating protects every string from corrosion while maintaining the natural feel and tone of their popular NYXL series. D'Addario is the only string company who draws wire, coats it, then winds it - other companies apply the coating after the strings are made. If you're dissatisfied with most coated bass guitar strings, give D'Addario XT bass strings an audition. You'll be impressed.
