Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A single G string for 3/4 double bass, Pirastro's Evah Pirazzi line, in weich (light) tension. Bought as a replacement, not as a full set.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing one broken or worn G on a 3/4 upright
- Players already running Evah Pirazzi who need to match the set
- Bassists who prefer lighter tension under the left hand
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone needing a complete four-string set — this is the G only
- Electric bass guitar; this is for upright double bass
- Players wanting higher tension for heavier pizzicato attack
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
3/4 size
Cut for the standard 3/4 upright, by far the most common size. A 1/2 or 4/4 bass needs its own length.
Detail 03
Weich tension
Weich is German for light. Lower tension means easier stopping under the left hand and a softer feel under the bow.
Detail 04
Mixing tension across a set
Putting a weich G against medium neighbors changes the balance string to string. Match tension if you can.
Detail 05
Price is per string
Replacing all four with this line costs roughly four times this, so plan the whole set before committing.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01This is one string, not a set of four.
- 02Confirm your bass is 3/4 — string length is measured from nut to bridge.
- 03Changing one string usually means a fresh tuning and settling period over several days.
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is this a set or one string?
One string — the G. Buy the D, A, and E separately if you are replacing the whole bass.
02Does this fit a bass guitar?
No. It is made for an upright double bass. Electric bass guitar strings are a different length and build entirely.
03What does weich mean?
Light tension. It pulls less against the top and feels easier under the fingers than medium. The trade-off is less resistance when you dig in.
04Can I use a weich G with medium other strings?
You can, but the G will feel looser than its neighbors. Most players keep one tension across all four for even feel and pull.
