It would be very hard for a guitarist to say this, but the bass player is one of the most fundamental parts of the band. Without bass there’s no drive, no power and no strong, pinning-down of pitch. But the last thing you want as a bass guitar player is to just be a low rumble and the only way to gain the clarity needed is from your strings. Shop from our vast range of bass strings here at Strings Direct, spanning home-grown British brands like Rotosound and Picato to huge multi-nationals like D’Addario, Ernie Ball and Elixir.
