D'Addario Helicore 'Hybrid' Double Bass strings SET

3/4 size - This is standard size for adults, confusing yes!  99% of double basses are 3/4 size and it has become the normal standard.  If you're not sure what size your bass is, then you've most likely got a 3/4.  4/4 size basses are EXTREMELY rare!

Helicore double bass strings are crafted with a multi-stranded steel core, giving them great playability and a clear, warm tone. The smaller string diameter provides quick bow response while the quality of materials and workmanship craft a string with excellent pitch stability and longevity.

D'Addario Helicore Double Bass Strings are justifiably popular; they offer a warm, rich sound that's remarkably similar to gut or synthetic core strings. Unlike gut, however, their all-metal construction renders them impervious to fluctuations in humidity and temperature. D'Addario Helicore Double Bass Strings have a multi-strand high-carbon steel core that produces flexible response and range. The core is overlaid with exotic alloy windings that provide extremely quick bow response and outstanding projection. The end result is a versatile string with very long playing life that is extremely stable under all playing conditions.

Helicore Hybrid bass strings are multi-stranded steel core strings that produce a moderately warm tone. The groundbreaking core design makes for strings that are easy to play. Damping is optimized to create a balance between pizzicato sustain and bow response, allowing performance across many playing styles--from symphonic to jazz or bluegrass.
