Loading... Please wait...45-65-85-105 53 inches Nickel-Plated Steel wound strings were introduced in the late Sixties and have become the most popular alloy for electric guitars and bass. Nickel-plated steel tends to offer the most balanced tone.

I went out early today needing new bass strings for jazz band. my upright is doing fine on the strings but may need new strings shortly....it would be great if i could get curt mangan upright strings..... anyways, i opened the package, felt around and my eyes lit up with delight. my first thought was these strings feel so silky and smooth compared to my worn coated strings that cracked in the wound before. i put on these new strings and began playing.... not plugged into an amp i could just hear and feel the tone through the delicate speedy vibrations these strings were making upon my bass. Pure Joy. has an excellent bright tone for the higher pitched solos and bouncing lows that just sounds sooooooo goood..... Thanks curt
