The La Bella SS42-CB Super Steps six-string bass strings in custom light 29-128 gauge offer a more relaxed tension than the standard set while covering the same extended range from high C to low B. The lighter gauges on the upper strings make tapping, chordal work, and fast melodic passages easier, while the 128 B string still provides solid low-end authority.

Stainless steel round wound construction ensures bright, articulate tone with long-lasting clarity. Custom light gauge is ideal for six-string bass players who prioritize playability and speed, or who use a lighter touch. The reduced tension brings out a slightly different tonal character with more midrange detail and quicker response. If you play progressive, fusion, or solo bass and need your six-string to respond to a wide range of techniques, the SS42-CB set delivers versatile performance with easier feel.
