Detail 01
Weich (light) gauge
Lower tension than medium. Easier to press and bow, quicker response, less raw volume and less resistance under a heavy hand.

PirastroEvah Pirazzi 3/4 Size Double Bass Strings 3/4 Size Weich Set
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A full set of Evah Pirazzi 3/4 double bass strings in weich (light) gauge, for orchestral and arco players wanting lower tension.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Arco players wanting easier bow response than medium gauge
- Re-stringing a 3/4 upright that feels stiff under the bow
- Players who want lower left-hand effort without dropping to a gut set
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Heavy slap or hard pizzicato players who want stiffer strings
- Anyone on a 1/2 or 1/4 bass — wrong scale length
- Budget re-strings; this is a premium set at $335
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 orchestral double bass scale. A shorter or longer scale bass needs a different length.
Detail 03
Full set
All four strings, so the instrument stays balanced in tension and feel rather than mixing gauges across strings.
Detail 04
$334.94
Premium bass strings. Cost per set is high because bass strings are long, thick and individually wound.
Detail 05
Double bass, not bass guitar
These are upright strings. They will not fit an electric bass guitar despite the shared word.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Confirm your bass is 3/4 scale before ordering — string length is not adjustable
- 02Bridge and soundpost may shift as tension changes; a luthier check is worth it
- 03Change strings one at a time to keep the soundpost standing
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will these fit my bass guitar?
No. These are for an upright double bass. Bass guitar strings are a different construction, length and ball end entirely.
02What's the difference between weich and medium?
Weich is the lighter tension option. It bows and fingers with less effort and responds faster, but pushes less air than a medium set.
03Do I need a luthier to install them?
Not necessarily, but changing all four at once can drop the soundpost. Swap one string at a time, or have a shop do it.
04Is this a full set or a single string?
A full set — all four strings for a 3/4 bass.
