Description

D'Addario's EPBB170-5 provides a rich, deep and projecting tone for all 5-String acoustic basses.

D'Addario Phosphor Bronze strings are precision wound with corrosion resistant phosphor bronze onto a carefully drawn, hexagonally shaped, high carbon steel core. The result is long lasting, bright sounding tone with excellent intonation.
