Sound & Performance
The BS-C4S set produces a crisp, articulate, and powerful tone that cuts through mixes with ease.
The heavier gauge (.045–.106) provides a firm foundation and deep low-end punch, while the stainless alloy delivers fast response and brilliant highs.
Each string undergoes strict tension and winding control for perfect note balance and tuning stability.
The taper-core E string enhances low-frequency clarity and quick attack — ideal for modern bass players who need definition and punch without harshness.
Despite its bright character, BS-C4S maintains a refined tone with a smooth top end, never overly metallic or sharp.

Why Choose Stainless Strings
Stainless steel strings are ideal for players seeking brightness, attack, and clarity.
They provide stronger projection and enhanced note separation, making them perfect for rock, funk, and metal.
Compared to nickel, stainless lasts longer and maintains its tone even under heavy playing conditions.
Our BS-C4S combines these advantages with Japanese handmade precision for unmatched consistency and feel.
