D'Addario NS Electric Traditional Bass String Set, 3/4 Scale, Medium Tension

Much better depth of sound compared to the stock Contemporary strings.

é una cordiera che trovo ottima, qualità prezzo eccellente

I was using the Helicor pizzicato string for my Palatino ve500. The first set was too long so I tried the 1/2 size set and they where also to long. They had a great sound but they where just not right for my bass. So I ordered a set of the NS Traditional 3/4 medium bass strings. Not only do they fit great (the Palatino ve500 has a 40 1/2" string length) but because they are 41 3/4" string length they fit perfectly, and they sound great. I modified my bass by using a cut down ebony tail piece and change the electronics. Which got as close to an acoustic upright bass as you can get. After adding these strings it put the sound over the top. Of course the bass will never be 100% upright sounding but I've got it at least 95%. The D'addario NS Traditional strings made the difference. Great strings.

Still resonant and stable after several months

These are a massive upgrade from the stock strings in every way. They sound better, both pizz and arco, they feel better, they stay in tune better and they bow better. My biggest complaint with my NXT 4 was the bowed sound was thin and the E string was hardly useable with the bow. Now, I get those fantastic, thundering lows with the bow. I couldn't be happier with this set of strings. I would give them 10 stars if I could.
