GHS Contact Core Super Steels Exposed Core Electric Bass Strings Long Scale - 5-String 45-129x 5M-CC

Designed with an extra-thin wrapped core near the ball end, the GHS Contact Core Super Steels generate a brighter tone than standard wrapped strings of the same gauge.  The thin segment of the Contact Core Super Steel strings rests on the saddle of the bass bridge.  The Core of the bass string making contact with the bridge gives the GHS Contact Core Super Steels their exceptionally bright tone.  The GHS Contact Core design gives these strings slightly more tension than standard strings.  This is ideal for Low-B strings.
