AVAILABLE IN BRIGHT NICKEL AND STAINLESS STEEL EXPERT TECHNICAL SUPPORT IN STOCK MEANS IN STOCK DESCRIPTION Improved midrange presence with less brightness and lower tension feel Differences between Stainless Steel and Bright Nickel - Stainless steel is the brightest alloy. They are best for slap bass and have a more cutting and aggressive tone. The initial brightness wears off as the strings age. Nickel strings are warmer, with a smoother feel to the finger tips. They are bright enough to cut through the mix and the tone stays consistent for a longer period of time. Designed for top-loading bridges, not recommended for through-body stringing Hex core **Be sure to order the correct set for your bass, as string sets can not be returned once opened.
