Powerful Boomers sound

Bass Boomers are renowned for their energetic character: a solid punch in the low end, clear definition in the midrange and plenty of sparkle for slap and pick playing. Thanks to the roundwound winding, you get a fresh, open tone with plenty of harmonics, whilst the nickel-plated steel winding delivers a balanced sound that works across many styles. The hex core also ensures stable string tension and a direct attack, keeping your bass lines tight, even during dynamic playing.
