D'AddarioZyex Series Double Bass Low C (Extended E) String 3/4 Size Medium
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built for a 3/4 double bass with an extended E setup, this medium-gauge Low C Zyex string uses a synthetic core and settles in within hours. It is voiced for a warm, rich, complex character while retaining clarity and power. Players alternating between pizzicato and arco can expect it to address both approaches, with emphasis on defined plucked attacks, sustain, and responsive bowing.
Strong match
Who this is for
- 3/4 double basses using an extended E setup that require a Low C string
- Bass work that moves between sustained pizzicato passages and bowing
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Double basses outside the stated 3/4 size or without the specified extended E configuration
