Description
Precision-Engineered for Multi-Scale Basses
The SIT NR545128MS 5-String Power Wound Bass Extra Long Multi-Scale Strings are specially crafted to meet the unique demands of multi-scale basses, such as those inspired by the “Dingwall Style” design. These strings are precision-engineered to deliver consistent tension, superior playability, and a rich, punchy tone across the extended scale lengths, ensuring that your multi-scale bass performs at its best.
Designed for Extra Long Scale Instruments
These strings are meticulously designed with varying lengths to accommodate the extended scale lengths typical of multi-scale basses. The strings range from 48” to 49” in length, ensuring a perfect fit and optimal tension balance across the entire fingerboard. The tapering design of certain strings, featuring a ball-to-bridge taper of 1.5” and varying ball-to-nut tapers, provides an ideal transition from bridge to nut, maximizing sustain and tonal clarity.
Innovative Construction for Superior Performance
At the core of the SIT Power Wound series is the renowned SIT LevelWrap formula, which ensures that each string is wound with exact tension for consistent playability and tone. The 8% nickel-plated steel wrap delivers a bright, articulate sound with a punchy low end, perfectly complementing the natural tonal characteristics of multi-scale basses. This innovative construction provides the stability and resilience needed for demanding performances, whether in the studio or on stage.
