GHS strikes a balance

Ronnie Dungan • MMR Global • October 10, 2017

GHS has launchedv new Balanced Nickels strings for bass guitars, a combination of traditional string materials and modern string design.

 
Traditionally, bass strings are made by wrapping one cover wire around the core to create the G, two covers for the D and A, and three covers for the E string. GHS’ Balanced Nickels bass strings change all this: in these new sets, they manufacture the G and the E strings by wrapping two covers around the core, bringing a fresh symmetry to the sets. The result is desinged to produce an equilibrium between tonality, tension, flexibility and playability.
 
Balanced Nickels are available in light and medium gauges for 4 and 5 string basses. Short Scale Balanced Nickels are also available.
