Balanced power for the modern bassist. Stringjoy Signatures Light Gauge 5-String Bass Strings (45-130) are engineered to provide a rock-solid foundation for your sound. Wound from premium American nickel-plated steel over a hexagonal steel core, these strings deliver a full, resonant low end and a smooth, musical top end that is neither too bright nor too mellow.

Now available at Haggerty’s Music, Stringjoy Signatures offer a balanced sonic profile with optimum output, ensuring your 5-string bass sits perfectly in any mix.

Precision Engineering & Versatile Tone

Stringjoy has refined the classic roundwound formula to create a string that feels as good as it sounds, providing consistent performance across the entire fretboard.

• Balanced Sonic Profile: The nickel-plated steel construction provides a versatile "middle-ground" tone. It offers enough punch for slap and fingerstyle funk, yet enough warmth and body for rock and jazz.
• Optimum Taper Length: These Long Scale sets feature a precise taper at 37.1" from the ball end. This is the ideal length for all 34″ scale basses and most 35″ scale models (non-string-thru), ensuring a perfect fit and excellent intonation at the nut and bridge.
• Massive Low B Definition: The .130 gauge low B string is designed to provide maximum clarity without the "floppiness" often found in lighter sets, giving your extended-range riffs the authority they deserve.
• American-Made Consistency: Every string is wound and inspected in Nashville, TN, using the highest quality materials to ensure superior tuning stability and a longer-lasting tonal "sweet spot."
