Description
There’s nothing like the moment old bass strings come off and a new set of GHS Boomers goes on — that dead, dull thump suddenly turns into real growl. This is the Heavy 50-115 set, wound in nickel-plated steel over a hex core, the combo that’s made Boomers a go-to for players who want low-mid punch without losing clarity in the mix.
What sets this set apart is the wrap on the low E and B strings: GHS blends stainless steel with nickel-plating there specifically, giving those low strings extra bite and definition so they don’t just rumble — they cut through. Whether you’re locked into a rock groove, laying down funk, or holding down metal riffs, this gauge gives you the beef to drive the low end while staying articulate enough for fingerstyle or pick attack.
Built for 34″ scale basses, this heavy gauge set rewards players who dig in hard and want strings that push back. If your current strings feel flat, stiff, or just lifeless under your fingers, that’s your cue — restring and get that Boomer punch back.
