If you've ever put on a fresh set of bass strings only to feel like they've gone dead after a few gigs, Elixir's NANOWEB Nickel Plated Steel Bass Strings are worth a look. The 14002 is a 4-string set in Super Light gauge (.040–.095), built for long-scale bass guitars, and coated with Elixir's NANOWEB technology — redesigned specifically for bass.
What makes these stand out is how the coating works. Rather than just coating the outside of the string, Elixir coats the entire string, protecting the gaps between the windings where gunk typically builds up and kills tone in other strings. The result is a round wound string that keeps its character longer than most, with a smooth feel that reduces finger squeak without making the strings feel slick or artificial.
The nickel plated steel construction gives these strings a round, clear voice with solid mid-range presence — the kind of tone that sits well in a mix. Plain steel strings in the set are anti-rust plated for added corrosion resistance. Whether you're playing every night or just picking the bass up on weekends, these hold up well between string changes.
