 Is this a good fit for you?

Given your profile as a musician/producer and likely using a bass in various performance or production contexts, here are some factors favoring this set:

• If your bass is short scale (i.e., ~30-32″ scale length), then this exact short scale set is appropriate — string length and tension will match better than long scale strings.

• The “Regular Light” tension (45-100) offers a good balance: playable feel without being too slack, while still offering solid low end and response (with the .100 low E).

• The nickel-plated wrap gives a bright yet warm tone, which can suit a variety of styles (soul, pop rock, live performance) that you are involved in.
