Elixir Custom Bass String Shop
Thursday, April 8, 2010
Those inventive string people at Elixir, who introduced the long life Nanoweb string coating, have clearly got their fingers on the pulse when it comes to looking after the needs of the electric bass player.
Being able to customise a string setup to get the right feel and balance is essential to all bass players. It’s particularly so for those who reach out into the realms of the double bass and others who wish to raise their game to a high C. Using a standard four string foundation set, in gauges from super light to heavy, five- and six-string players can now customise their low Bs and high Cs. For five-string players, the choice ranges from the super light 125 through to the heavy 135. Six-stringers have the choice of the high C down to a medium 32.
