Bass Centre Elites Stadium Series

This is where it all began — the Bass Centre’s original stainless steel roundwound, long-scale bass strings, still the brand of choice for a huge number of A-list artists, including Guy Pratt, Norman Watt-Roy, Charlie Jones, Peter Hook, and Jerry Meehan.

Durable, extremely bright and resonant, with superb harmonic response and plenty of attack and clarity, these really are the “strings with the zing”, perfect for bassists who want to stand out in the mix. Less abrasive on fingers and frets than other stainless steel brands, Stadium Series strings are great for long playing sessions.

Recommended for modern rock and pop and especially good for slap styles.

Available in a choice of 4, 5 and 6 string matched gauge sets, plus double ball end, custom sets, and singles.

Great strings!

These are super-great strings, they play light and still give that fat sound.

So special that I order them from the UK.

Only problem I forgot: there is quite an amount of tax to be added when importing it to Europe. Thanks Brexit!

Will order them again!

Elites every time
26 April 2024  | 

Elites were my go-to string choice for many years, but I decided to see if the grass was greener with a couple of sets of US strings, billed as a premium string with added depth and longevity.

Those strings faded quicker, and lacked the sonic purity that the Elites possess. I love Elites for their definition and hi-fi sound. The more you punish them the higher the definition. They oooze bass and don’t need as much tonal shaping as other strings. They are the only strings I will use. From subtle poised fingerstyle especially, the mwah rolled off top end to the most percussive of slaps and pops, these are your go-to strings. If you want to summon the gods with your tone, re-string with these beauties, you won’t regret it.

I've never used Elites strings before. I really liked the strings, excellent quality. These strings are very sensitive to sound production; they produce different sounds for different techniques. Thank you, I have new horizons for my creativity.

The best strings out there
13 December 2023  | 

For me Elites are probably the best strings out there. They remain supple and the intonation lasts longer than most, they sound awesome whatever style I play, and they just keep ringing.

Great strings and reasonably priced.

Brilliant strings. Nicely balanced and retain their zing for a very long time. The only strings I now use on all my basses.

Is it time to change strings....erm...no!
25 March 2023  | 

I used to buy a box of 10 sets at a time in Wapping days, great discount then, loved them!

Then I stopped using for many years.

In the last few years I've started using again as I've gone back to steels

Initially they are really really bright, but a great bottom end on my Jazz, the feel is initially a little rough/coarse, but not like RS66's which are almost barbed wire in comparison.

But then they mellow and the temptation to change comes in, but they get a really lovely feel with just a bit more warmth and sit in a great sweet spot for months

I practice avidly everyday as I love playing bass, rehearse 1-2 times a week, and gig twice a month in gigging season (pubs and clubs). The current set on my Jazz Bass has been on there for 4 months to date, and the strings are still punchy but warm, crisp and growly... it's close to changing time I keep telling myself, but I just don't want to take them off!!!

Economically it's great, usually I'd have had 2-3 sets over the same period.
