La Bella RX-N5A Bass RX Nickel Bass Strings, 5-String 40-118

The La Bella RX-N5A nickel roundwound bass strings are a 5-string set (40-118) with the lightest gauges in the RX Nickel 5-string range. Light gauge means lower tension, easier fretting, and a more flexible, responsive feel across all five strings. The 40-gauge G and 118-gauge B keep things comfortable even during long sessions and technical passages.

Nickel-plated steel winding produces warm, balanced tone with a smooth high end and a natural, musical midrange. Light gauge nickel strings are a popular choice for players who value comfort and expressiveness, including jazz, fusion, and R&B bassists who need fluid technique across the full five-string range. Handcrafted in La Bella's New York facility, the RX-N5A delivers the approachable playability of light gauge with the trusted warmth of nickel roundwounds.
