GHS Announces BEAD Tuned Bass Boomers
If you like things nice and low, GHS has you covered with their latest set of Bass Boomers. The new four-string sets are designed for BEAD tuning and described as having “deep low end with a midrange crunch that cuts through a band mix.”
The BEAD Tuned Bass Boomers come in three gauges – Medium Light, Medium, and Heavy – and have a 37.25-inch winding length. As with the rest of the Boomers series, the new strings are roundwounds made with nickel-plated steel. The lower tuning means they have larger gauges than typical four-string sets, and GHS offers a warning not to attempt tuning them up to standard tuning.
The GHS BEAD Tuned Bass Boomers are available now for $22.95.

| Roundwound | Nickel Plated Steel |
| 37.25″ Winding | Gauges: Medium Light (.060-.126), Medium (.065-.130), Heavy (.070-.140) |
