D'Addario - 45-100 Regular Light Long Scale Bass Strings

Coined the “third type of string,” XL Half Rounds bass strings are an excellent medium between round wound and flat wound strings. Half Rounds have a smoother feel than round wound strings, but a fuller tone than strings that are flat wound. Made with a high carbon steel core and pure nickel wrap wire, they’re finished with a precision grinding process to provide a smooth feel and reduced finger noise, with tone that's comparable to round wound bass strings. 45-100 Regular Light is our most popular bass gauge, providing a perfect blend of response and playability.
