40-101 

A set of strings for a 4-string electric bass drawing 40-101 refers to a set of four metal strings designed specifically for an electric bass with four strings. The numbers "40-101" represent the string gauge, i.e. the thickness of the strings. Specifically, the first number represents the thickness of the E string (the highest), and the last number represents the thickness of the B string (the lowest).

In general, thicker strings produce a more powerful and richer sound, while thinner strings are easier to play and produce a brighter sound. The 40-101 string gauge is considered a versatile gauge, suitable for different styles of music, such as rock, jazz and funk.

Using a set of strings of this gauge, a bassist can expect to get a balanced sound, with good definition of the low notes and a quick response to attacks. However, it is important to note that the choice of a set of strings will also depend on playing style, personal preference and desired tone.
