EXL160BT Balanced Tension : Ideal tension for short scale bass
I bought these for my 30" short scale bass. They required the nut for the E string to be widened slightly to accommodate the .120 gauge string.
The extra tension works particularly well with the short scale bass, which naturally has less tension that full scale basses. Standard gauge string can be floppy on a shorter scale but these remain nice and tight even using the Hipshot D tuner to drop D and even low B!! The Nickel strings provide a warm tone. The balanced tension across all strings feels good.
