D'AddarioHelicore Orchestral Series Double Bass String Set 1/10 Size
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Refresh a 1/10-size double bass with the complete Helicore Orchestral string set rather than replacing one position at a time. The multi-stranded steel cores are designed for easy left-hand playing, and the damping is optimized around arco work with excellent bow response. For plucked passages, the set is also intended to produce a warmer, less-sustaining result, keeping the response aligned across the instrument.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Outfitting a 1/10-size double bass with a complete matching Orchestral string set.
- Arco-centered setups that also use pizzicato with reduced sustain.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players wanting pizzicato strings with more sustained decay.
