Short-scale bass players know the struggle — finding strings that actually fit, intonate properly, and still deliver the low-end punch you need. Flight built these specifically so you're not fighting with full-scale strings on a mini bass ever again. The FMBS-200s are steel round wounds cut and pre-stripped to fit short-scale and mini bass instruments right out of the package. No trimming, no guessing, no fussing with installation. The round wound construction gives you that classic, tactile feel under your fingers — the kind of bright, growly response that sits well in a mix whether you're locking in with a drummer on a country gig or holding down the low end in a rock band. The .045–.105 gauge set hits a sweet spot between flexibility and tension, so the feel isn't too floppy or too stiff. They track well, they respond cleanly, and they've got enough mid-range bite to cut through without sounding harsh. It's a simple thing, but having strings designed for the instrument you're actually playing makes a real difference. Intonation feels tighter, the tone is more even across all four strings, and you're not dealing with the dead spots or slack that comes from forcing full-scale strings into a shorter setup. If you play a mini bass — whether it's a travel rig, a practice setup, or just your go-to short-scale — these are the strings that belong on it. **Specifications:** - Brand: Flight - Model: FMBS-200 Mini Bass Strings - Construction: Steel Round Wound - Designed For: Short Scale / Mini Bass - String Gauges: .045–.105 - 1st String: .045 - 2nd String: .065 - 3rd String: .085 - 4th String: .105 - Pre-Cut and Pre-Stripped for Easy Installation - SKU: 6510
