A 5-string medium scale set built to the same standard as the rest of the NYXL line. The NYXL32130MS gives medium scale 5-string players a proper option with D'Addario's NY Steel core, the high-carbon steel construction that delivers better tuning stability and higher break resistance than standard bass strings.

The 32-130 gauge is dialed in for medium scale instruments, giving you enough tension to feel solid and responsive across all five strings without the stiffness that can come with heavier gauges on a shorter scale. Nickel-plated steel wrap wire keeps the tone bright and articulate, with clear note definition from the low B all the way up to the G. The Fusion Twist ball end locks in at the bridge and stays there.

Medium scale basses are common in short-arm players, travel rigs, and certain vintage-style instruments. Finding a 5-string set that's actually wound for the scale length matters, and this one is built right from the start.

We stock these at The Pied Piper of New Albany and our Charleston showroom, and they ship fast to bass players across Columbus, Westerville, Dublin, Gahanna, Powell, Pickerington, Reynoldsburg, Pataskala, Johnstown, and the broader central Ohio market.
