Description
Short scale basses deserve strings that don’t feel like an afterthought, and this Dunlop set proves it. Gauges 45, 65, 85, and 105 give you a nickel wound 4-string set that’s tonally even across the board, so your low B doesn’t feel flabby while your G string stays crisp and articulate up top.
Fresh strings change everything on a short scale neck — that dead, muted thud you get from old windings disappears, replaced by a warm fundamental with real growl in the midrange and harmonics that actually ring out. Whether you’re fingerstyle, slapping, or driving a pick through the mix, this set holds its footing and keeps the low end solid no matter where you’re fretting.
Dunlop builds these from the ground up rather than copying an old formula. Their Benicia, California shop runs machines slower and in smaller batches on purpose, which means tighter quality control from raw wire to finished set. Every pack gets sealed for freshness before it ships, so what you unwrap is as close to fresh-off-the-winder as it gets.

Swap a dead set for one of these and you’ll hear the difference in the first note — that’s the whole point of restringing often, and StringRush keeps you stocked for it.
