Jim Dunlop Stainless Steel Flatwound Medium Scale Bass Strings 40-120 | 5-String

Flatwound bass strings are more popular than they have been in years. Their sound harkens back to the timeless rock, funk, and R&B recordings that helped define the role of modern bass players. More and more of those players are looking to the flatwound sound for new inspiration that’s informed by a classic aesthetic. With medium and short scale basses making a full come back, we’ve added medium and short scale sets to the lineup so that bass players can get the full Dunlop sound no matter the scale.

• VINTAGE WARMTH WITH A MODERN FEEL: Dunlop Flatwound Bass Strings throw down that classic mellow thump heard on classic rock, funk, and R&B recordings—with the performance and playability that today’s players crave.
• RESPONSIVE TONAL VERSATILITY: Simply rolling back your bass’ tone control takes your sound from punchy modern articulation to that classically deep, thumpy warmth.
• EASY TO PLAY: Most flatwound strings are stiff and tiresome to play, so we made ours with lighter tension. Get around the neck with comfort and control, and explore the groovy potential of flats.
