General

The GHS Contact Core Super Steels 5L-CC is a string set for 5-string electric bass guitars, designed for players who prefer a crisp, modern attack and plenty of definition. This is a light gauge set, offering a smooth playing feel and enough tension to stay tight, even during dynamic playing. The gauges range from .040 to .125, giving you a balanced feel across all strings. Ideal for fingerstyle, slap or pick playing, when your bass parts really need to ‘stand out’ in the mix.

Exposed contact core: tighter response

What sets this set apart is the exposed contact core construction. This means the core is more ‘exposed’ on the bridge side, which often results in a more direct transmission and a tighter response, particularly on the lower strings. Combined with the hexagonal core, the string feels stable and responds precisely to your touch. The roundwound winding also delivers that recognisable clarity and overtones, ensuring that ghost notes, harmonics and articulation really stand out.

For 34” long-scale 5-string basses

The 5L-CC set is suitable for 34-inch long-scale 5-string electric basses. You get five strings in one set: .040, .060, .080, .100 and .125. This makes it a logical choice if you’re looking for a light set, but one with a solid, clear low B. As you’d expect from GHS, these strings are made in the USA and designed to be reliable workhorses for rehearsals, the studio and the stage.
