Warwick Black Label Stainless Steel Bass Strings - 4-String Medium Gauge | No Limit Guitar Co, Idaho Falls
Warwick Black Label Stainless Steel bass strings deliver the full, brilliant tone and precise intonation that demanding bass players expect from a professional-grade string. Built in the USA around a hexagonal steel core and wound with round-wound stainless steel, the Black Label medium set (.045–.105) produces the bright, cutting character and strong output that stainless steel is prized for — with the consistency and accuracy that Warwick's manufacturing standards are built around. Whether you're laying down heavy grooves or cutting through a dense mix, Black Label strings are built to perform.
Product Overview
The Warwick Black Label medium gauge set is a four-string, long-scale configuration wound on a hexagonal steel core — a geometry that grips the winding wire more securely than a round core, reducing slippage and contributing to the precise intonation and consistent feel these strings are engineered to deliver. At .045, .065, .085, and .105, medium gauge provides a well-balanced tension suited to a wide range of playing styles, from fingerstyle and slap to aggressive pick playing and low-tuned grooves.
Stainless steel winding gives Warwick Black Label strings their tonal identity: bright, articulate, and full-range, with a strong fundamental, well-defined midrange, and crisp, sustaining highs that cut through any stage or studio mix. Stainless steel is also significantly more resistant to corrosion from body oils and sweat than nickel alternatives, meaning these strings retain their tone and feel through more playing time between changes.
Manufactured in the USA, Warwick Black Label strings are available in Extra Light, Light, Medium Light, and Medium gauges across the 34" long-scale format, making it easy to find the right tension for your instrument and technique. The Black Label medium set is a reliable, professional choice for gigging and recording bassists who value consistent performance, accurate intonation, and a vibrant stainless tone from a trusted name in bass.

Key Features
Round-Wound Stainless Steel for Full, Brilliant Tone
Warwick Black Label strings are wound in stainless steel — a bright, hard winding material that produces a full, brilliant tonal character with strong output, crisp highs, and a naturally aggressive edge. Stainless steel's reflective surface and corrosion resistance means the strings retain their fresh, vibrant tone longer than nickel-wound alternatives, making them a strong value for working bassists.
Hexagonal Core for Precise Intonation and Stability
The hexagonal steel core grips the winding wire more securely than a round core, locking the winding in place and reducing the slippage that can cause intonation inconsistencies and tonal irregularities. The result is a string with accurate, predictable intonation across the full length of the fretboard and stable tuning under demanding playing conditions.
Medium Gauge for Versatile Tension and Feel
At .045–.105, the Black Label medium set provides a firm, responsive feel with enough tension to support a wide range of playing techniques and tuning options. Medium gauge strings project with authority, track well at higher volumes, and maintain note definition even when driving the front end of a tube amp or playing through high-gain settings.
Long-Scale 34" Format
Wound for 34" long-scale bass guitars, Warwick Black Label strings are compatible with the vast majority of standard four-string bass instruments. The full-length winding ensures proper tension and consistent tone from nut to bridge with no compromise in the playable length.
Made in the USA
Every set of Warwick Black Label strings is manufactured in the USA to exacting quality standards. Consistent construction, precise winding tolerances, and rigorous quality control at every stage of production mean you can trust each set to perform the same way, every time.
