D'Addario NYXL Bass Strings 4-String Long Scale Light 40-95 | No Limit Guitar Co, Idaho Falls
The D'Addario NYXL Bass Strings deliver exceptional dynamic range, wide harmonic response, and vibrant midrange tone engineered for bassists who demand more from their strings in every style and situation. Built around D'Addario's proprietary NY Steel core wrapped with NYXL nickel-plated wire featuring increased magnetic properties, these roundwound strings offer higher output, rich harmonic content, and superior tuning stability compared to conventional nickel bass strings. Whether you slap and pop aggressively or settle into laid-back R&B grooves, the NYXL Bass Strings give you the tonal versatility and consistent performance to find your sound and hold it.
Product Overview
The NYXL formula starts with D'Addario's proprietary NY Steel core — a high-strength steel alloy engineered specifically for improved tuning stability and break resistance compared to standard hexagonal core wire. The result is a string that holds pitch more reliably under aggressive playing, heavy bending, and the demanding tension fluctuations of active stage performance.
Wrapped with NYXL nickel-plated wire featuring enhanced magnetic properties, these strings produce noticeably higher output and a more vibrant, present midrange than conventional nickel-plated roundwounds. The rich harmonic content built into the NYXL winding makes it exceptionally easy to shape your bass tone for virtually any genre — from the punchy, percussive attack of funk and slap playing to the smooth, focused warmth of R&B and jazz.
At 36.875" long scale with a tapered design, the NYXL4095 is built for standard long scale 4-string basses and delivers consistent tension and intonation across all four strings. The light gauge (.040–.095) offers a comfortable, responsive playing feel that suits fast fingerwork and dynamic playing styles without sacrificing the output and midrange presence that makes the NYXL series stand out. Bassists at No Limit Guitar Co in Idaho Falls consistently reach for the NYXL series when they want a string that keeps up with their playing and elevates their tone — backed by over 300 years of D'Addario string-making tradition.
Ideal For
- Slap and pop bassists who need high output, vibrant midrange, and reliable tuning stability under aggressive technique
- R&B, funk, and soul players looking for rich harmonic content that shapes easily across a wide range of tones
- Gigging and studio bassists who demand consistent performance and superior tuning stability set after set
- Light gauge players who want a fast, responsive feel without giving up output or tonal character
- Any bassist ready to upgrade from conventional nickel strings to a higher-performance, more harmonically rich alternative
