Detail 01
Medium gauge
More tension than light sets. Fuller low end and stronger attack, but stiffer under the fingers.

GHSM3045F Flea Signature Bass Boomers Medium Electric Bass Strings
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Roundwound nickel-plated bass strings in medium gauge, cut for 4-string electric bass. For players who want a bright, punchy roundwound tone.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Fingerstyle and slap players who want treble bite
- Anyone restringing a standard-scale 4-string electric bass
- Players replacing dull strings on a rock or funk rig
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- 5-string bass owners — this is a 4-string set
- Players wanting warm, thumpy flatwound tone
- Extended-scale or short-scale basses without checking length
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 construction
Textured winding gives brightness and growl. Also grips frets more, so fret wear is faster than flatwounds.
Detail 03
Bass Boomers line
GHS's roundwound bass string family, known for an aggressive top end rather than a mellow voice.
Detail 04
4-string set
Four strings only. No low B or high C included, so this won't restring a 5-string.
Detail 05
Nickel-plated steel
Less abrasive on frets than pure stainless and slightly warmer, while keeping roundwound clarity.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01One set only — buy multiples if you change strings often
- 02Check your bass's scale length so the windings clear the nut
- 03Expect a fresh setup check; gauge changes can shift neck relief
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will these fit a 5-string bass?
No. This is a 4-string set. You'd need a dedicated 5-string set to cover the low B.
02How many strings come in the pack?
Four — one set for a standard 4-string electric bass.
03Are these bright or warm sounding?
Bright. Roundwound Bass Boomers lean toward punch and top-end growl rather than a dark, muted tone.
04Do I need to adjust my bass after installing these?
Check intonation and neck relief if you're moving from a lighter gauge. Medium tension can pull the neck slightly.
