D'AddarioNS Electric Traditional Bass G String
1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
An individual G string for electric upright basses that retain a standard playing length while using a shorter overall string length with no tailpiece. Its stranded steel core and nickel winding follow the Traditional Double Bass G-string design, which is constructed and tensioned similarly to an acoustic bass string. Treat it as a targeted replacement: the instrument’s playing-length and overall-length arrangement are the key checks before installation.

Who this is for
- Replacing the G string on an electric upright bass with standard playing length and no tailpiece.
Consider the trade-offs
