Custom Light Taylor GS Mini Coated Acoustic Bass Strings XTB3790GS
Since D'Addario introduced Phosphor Bronze acoustic guitar strings in 1974, they've been synonymous with warm, well-balanced tone—and since we developed this set exclusively with Taylor Guitars, there has been no better option for the GS Mini Bass. XT Taylor Mini Bass acoustic strings are constructed with a multi-filament core, phosphor bronze wrap wire, and an advanced corrosion resistance coating, affording tonal versatility with added resilience, excellent for a wide range of acoustic bass styles. This 37-90 Custom Light gauge set is made specifically for the Taylor GS Mini Bass and will also fit with other similarly-sized instruments.

These strings are designed for the Taylor GS Mini® Bass and will also fit on many other short scale/parlor acoustic basses with a scale length of 23-25" (these strings do not contain tapers).
XT Mini Bass strings feature an advanced corrosion resistance treatment on every string in the set, extending string life, while preserving the natural tone and feel of uncoated strings.
This set is a direct replacement for EXPPB190GS, with the same multi-filament cores and iconic Phosphor Bronze wrap wire, renewed in our advanced XT coating.
XT bass sets have a code on the recyclable, resealable VCI bag, which you can register to earn Players Circle points.
D'Addario bass strings are made in the USA—drawn to exacting specifications at our New York production facility.
Why does the ball end side of the low B string for my bass have a taper?
Many 5-string bass players prefer a tapered end for the low B string. This allows the heavier gauge low B string to be positioned on the bridge more evenly with the other 4 strings. The taper can also improve the clarity of the fundamental tone, which improves intonation.
There are many factors that can affect the lifespan of your strings. Here are some tips to help extend the life of your strings:
1. Wipe down your strings after each use.
2. Try D'Addario X-Series strings! Our two X Series options each use a distinct method to extend lifespan, while preserving the tone and feel of uncoated strings.
