D'Addario XLB100 XL Nickel Wound Bass Single String — Long Scale .100
Single Bass String, XL Quality
The D'Addario XLB100 is a single .100 long-scale bass string from the XL Nickel Wound family - the round-wound nickel formulation that has been the working bassist's default for decades. Sold as a single so you can replace one broken string instead of changing the whole set, or build a custom-gauge set tailored to your tuning.
Bright, Articulate, Reliable
Round wound with precision-applied nickel-plated steel over a hexagonal high-carbon steel core. The XL wrap formulation delivers a clear fundamental with bright articulation - the sound bass players have built records around for forty years.
Construction
- Gauge: .100, long scale.
- Core: Hexagonal high-carbon steel for consistent intonation.
- Wrap: Round-wound nickel-plated steel.
- Use: Replacement A string for 4-string long-scale bass, or custom gauging.
