GHS Bass Boomers SolidWound Light .040-.095 4-String set of bass guitar strings

General

Are you looking for bass strings that are instantly ‘on’ and make your amp work just that bit harder? The GHS Bass Boomers are designed for players who love a clear tone with power, sustain and a solid output. This Light set is designed for 4-string electric bass and combines a tight feel with plenty of body for rock, pop, funk and everything in between. The nickel-plated steel gives you a lovely blend of sparkle and punch, without ever sounding too sharp.

Brilliant, loud and tight in the mix

Bass Boomers are renowned for their distinct presence: a clear attack, plenty of definition in the low end and a rich overtone character that keeps your bass clearly audible in a full band mix. The light gauge (.040–.095) plays smoothly and responds quickly to dynamics, which is great for fast runs, slapping or a tight pick sound. At the same time, the set remains powerful enough to lay down a solid, supportive bass foundation with the sustain that Boomers are loved for.

Build quality and fit (34” long scale)

This set is constructed as roundwound strings with SolidWound ends and a hexagonal core, ensuring stable tension and a consistent playing feel. Thanks to the 34” long scale, it is suitable for most standard long-scale 4-string electric basses. The nickel-plated steel material delivers a durable, all-round tone that’s easy to EQ, whether you’re playing clean or with drive and effects. Made in the USA for those seeking that recognisable Boomer sound.
