Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
For five-string electric bass, this Markbass Longevo set uses nickel-plated steel strings in a light 40–120 gauge range. Its ecological, biocompatible Nano Film microfilm is designed to be imperceptible while extending string life. Markbass describes the treatment as retaining the strings’ elastic properties, intonation, reliability, tone, and feel; it is also presented as usable by players allergic to nickel.
