GHSBEAD Tuned Bass Boomers Medium (65-130) Strings
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
GHS Bass Boomers in this medium .065–.130 set are arranged expressly for BEAD tuning. It gives a four-string bassist a dedicated BEAD set, and also corresponds to the lower four strings of a five-string bass. The point is straightforward: buy the four strings needed for that tuning without piecing together single strings or buying a five-string set and leaving the G string unused.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Retuning a four-string bass to BEAD without assembling individual string purchases.
- Replacing the lower four strings of a five-string bass with a BEAD set.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players seeking a standard four-string set rather than one made specifically for BEAD tuning.
