GHS Progressives L8000 Light .040-.100 4-String set of bass guitar strings

General

The GHS Progressives L8000 is a complete set of strings for electric bass guitar, designed for bassists looking for a light set with a clear, tight response. With gauges of .040, .060, .080 and .100 inches, this set plays smoothly whilst still offering plenty of body and control in your tone. The set is suitable for 34-inch long-scale basses and therefore fits most standard 4-string models. A great choice for those who want to combine comfort with a modern, defined sound.

Alloy 52: fast attack, clear definition

These Progressives strings are made from Alloy 52, an alloy known for its bright attack and focused tone. This allows your notes to cut through the mix nicely, without sounding harsh or thin. Combined with the roundwound winding, this delivers plenty of detail, a lively harmonic structure and a direct playing feel. Ideal for fingerstyle, pick playing and tight, rhythmic parts where articulation and presence are important.

Stable foundation with a hexagonal core

The strings feature a hexagonal core, which ensures stable tension and a consistent feel under your fingers. You’ll notice this in the reliable intonation and tuning stability, even when playing dynamically. As this is a 34" long-scale set, it fits neatly on standard-scale electric basses. As you’d expect from GHS, this Progressives L8000 set is also made in the USA.
