✓ In Stock (50 available)
Give your 5-string bass the punch and clarity it deserves with the D'Addario EXL170-5 — one of the world's best-selling 5-string bass sets from D'Addario's legendary XL Nickel Wound series. Built for players who demand a bright, balanced, and versatile tone that cuts through any mix, this set is the go-to choice for rock, pop, funk, jazz, and slap styles alike. Each string features a precision hex-core construction for rock-solid intonation and longer string life, while the nickel-plated steel wrap delivers that signature XL brightness without losing warmth. The heavy .130 low B string stays tight and defined, eliminating the muddiness common on cheaper 5-string sets. Color-coded ball ends make restringing fast and foolproof, and the corrosion-resistant packaging keeps your strings fresh until first use.
