The Korena take
Pure Blues PB5-40 is a five-string electric bass set in .040–.120 gauges, using Quantum Nickel wrap wire around a round core. The wrap material is described as combining nickel warmth with stainless-steel sharpness, while the round core brings a flexible, smooth feel for bending. It is voiced in the source as full and punchy, with strong lows, clear highs, and response suited to fingerstyle, slap, or pick playing.

- Five-string bass work needing strong low notes while retaining clear higher-string definition.
- Fingerstyle, slap, or pick parts where a full, punchy and balanced response is wanted.
