ARTICLE N° 118355
The Ernie Ball Bass Tapewound Long Scale 60-115 4-string set is designed for bassists looking for a warm, deep, muffled sound similar to that of a vintage double bass.

Each string combines a tin-plated steel core with a polished black nylon-covered winding for a smooth, pleasant feel under the fingers.

This finish significantly reduces sliding noise and makes finger-style playing easier, both in the studio and on stage. The higher draw (60-115) provides extra tension, ideal for powerful bass lines or tighter long-scale instruments.

Tapewound strings soften the overly bright character of the bass, while maintaining a rich, stable musical response.

Suitable for a wide range of styles including jazz, soul, reggae, folk and pop, they can be used to create deep, expressive bass lines. The whole thing remains comfortable and even, encouraging fluid, precise playing.
