Description
The EXL230 set represents D’Addario’s heaviest standard gauging in the XL Nickel Wound Electric Bass line, engineered for players who want maximum volume paired with a bright, aggressive edge. That extra thickness makes this set a natural fit for down-tuning, where you need strings that can hold pitch and punch without going flabby.
- Gauges: .055, .075, .090, .110 (wound)
- Long scale, fits basses with scale lengths up to 36 1/4 inches
- Round wound construction with nickel-plated steel wrap wire
- Precision wound on D’Addario’s digitally-controlled machinery for consistent intonation and clear fundamentals
- Manufactured entirely in the U.S.A.
Every string in this set benefits from D’Addario’s exacting winding process, which keeps tension even and fundamentals clean across the whole neck. The nickel-plated wrap gives you that classic, articulate brightness with strong magnetic output, so pickups respond with a full, defined signal regardless of genre or technique. Whether you’re a rock, metal, funk, or session bassist, the EXL230 set delivers a tone that stays clear under heavy attack and comfortable enough for extended playing sessions despite the added gauge.
As the world’s largest string manufacturer, D’Addario backs the EXL230 with the same corrosion-resistant, waste-reducing packaging found across its XL lineup, so your strings arrive protected and ready to perform set after set.
