XL ProSteels Bass Guitar Strings - EPS165 - Long Scale - Regular Light Top/Medium Bottom, 45-105

XL ProSteels Bass Guitar Strings - EPS165 - Long Scale - Regular Light Top/Medium Bottom, 45-105

Q: If I use these, will I still be able to tune to E Standard?

Yes, for sure. The E string in this set is .110" whereas a "normal" E string is .098" to .105" typically. So these strings have in the neighborhood of a 5% greater diameter and mass, thus will require a slightly greater tension on the neck. This will result in a "stiffer" string, where a lighter gauge string may feel "floppy" by comparison. I like a lot of tension in my strings. It gives me a truer, more consistent tone with a more aggressive attack and longer sustain. It also eliminates the excessive neck noises and clicks one gets with floppy strings. I used to buy DR heavy gauge strings exclusively, but these give me a compatible sound at about half the cost. I recommend these...and I play a standard tuning (E-A-D-G).

Q: Will these fit a Fender Precision ?

Unfortunately these will not fit a Precision Bass as they are "short scale" strings. The Precision Bass and other basses like it are "long scale" basses. Thankfully D'addario makes the same set with the same materials and gauge for long scale basses. Here is a link to that set. https://www.amazon.com/DAddario-EPS170-ProSteels-Guitar-Strings/dp/B0006Z4B6S
