Description
Thomastik Superflexible Double Bass Strings are made with a braided steel core for universal use. This double bass string is an advancement of conventional solid double bass strings, lying midway in the path of evolution from the solid core double bass sting to the advanced spiral core type of upright bass string. Thomastik Superflexible Double Bass Strings are responsive and their tone seems to radiate from the instrument without harshness. Unsurpassed durability, tuning stability, and tonal purity make Superflexibles a dependable all-around double bass string.
Thomastik Super Flexible Double Bass Strings are available in Orchestra Medium Tension or Solo Tuning. PLEASE MAKE YOUR STRING SELECTION IN THE CUSTOMIZATION TAB ABOVE BEFORE ADDING TO YOUR CART.
Gary’s Thoughts: Thomastik SuperFlexible Double Bass Strings are a lower cost alternative to Spirocores. As the manufacturer states, these are a very durable string; however in my mind they are much more of a jazz string than a classical string. Despite being largely overlooked by Thomastik, SuperFlexible strings have a sound that many players will enjoy the sustain and growl of.
Highlights:
- Universal-use string for arco and pizz
- Excellent purity of open fifths
- Dependable all-around string
- Great sustain and growl
Thread Color Key:
- Medium (M) = Blue Bottom, Blue Top
- Solo = Blue Bottom, Yellow Top
