Replacement Bass String for Long-Scale Basses

The D'Addario NYXLB045 is a single .045" nickel-wound bass guitar string designed as a replacement or for building custom sets. It belongs to the NYXL bass string family, which uses a reformulated nickel-plated steel wrap wire over a high-carbon NY Steel hex core. The result is a string with a familiar feel and accentuated harmonics, plus the tuning stability and break resistance the NYXL line is known for. The .045" gauge fits the A-string position on a standard long-scale 4-string bass or the D-string slot on a 5-string setup, and the string is built to fit basses with a scale length of up to 36 1/4" (921 mm). Made in the USA at D'Addario's New York production facility, this single string is uncoated and sold individually.

Who This String Is For

The NYXLB045 is the right choice for bass players who need a reliable replacement .045" string for a long-scale bass without buying a full set. It suits rock, pop, funk, and metal players who want the bright, punchy character of round-wound nickel-plated steel with extra tuning stability for aggressive playing styles. Bassists building custom gauge sets — for example, mixing NYXL strings with other D'Addario bass lines — will appreciate the single-string format. The NY Steel hex core also makes this a practical option for players who break strings frequently and want a more durable replacement. Because it fits basses with scale lengths up to 36 1/4" (921 mm), it works with most standard long-scale 4-, 5-, and 6-string electric basses on the market.
