D'AddarioEXL220TP Twin-Pack Bass Guitar Strings
1/5
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Two sets of D'Addario nickel-wound bass strings in one package. For players who change strings often and want a lower cost per set.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Gigging bassists who go through sets regularly
- Stocking a spare set in the gig bag
- Players who like the bright attack of fresh strings
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players wanting the thump of old, broken-in strings
- Anyone needing a single set only
- Short-scale or five-string basses without checking fit
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Roundwound
Ridged outer wrap gives bright attack and growl. More finger noise and more fret wear than flats.
Detail 03
Nickel-plated steel
Warmer than pure stainless, still magnetically strong. The common middle-ground for rock, pop, and funk.
Detail 04
Light gauge set
Lower tension and easier to fret. Less thump than heavier gauges, and can rattle if you dig in hard.
Detail 05
Four strings per set
Built for standard four-string bass. Five- and six-string players need a different set.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Check your bass's scale length before buying — long scale is the standard assumption

- 03No winder, cutters, or setup tools included
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will these fit a five-string bass?
No. This is a four-string set. You'd need a five-string set that includes a low B.
02How long do bass strings last?
Depends on how much you play and how much your hands sweat. Heavy gigging players change monthly; casual players get many months out of a set.
03Do I need to adjust my bass after changing strings?
If you stay at the same gauge, usually not. Changing gauge shifts neck tension and may need truss rod and intonation adjustment.
04Is the twin pack the same strings as the single set?
Yes. Same EXL220 set, just two of them in one package at a lower cost per set.
