Nano-film microfilm
The treatment is designed to increase service life while retaining tone, feel, elasticity, intonation, and reliability.

Independent shopping perspective
Built for five-string electric bass in a 45–130 medium gauge, this nickel-plated steel Longevo set uses a very thin nano-film microfilm. Markbass designs that treatment to extend the strings’ service life while preserving their tone, feel, elasticity, intonation, and reliability. It gives regular bass maintenance a set chosen for consistency over time, rather than a change in response as the strings remain in use. The coating is also described as suitable for players with nickel allergies.
