Pirastro 1EPSBSS Evah Pirazzi Slap Synthetic Double Bass String Set, 3/4 Medium

Pirastro Evah Pirazzi Slap Synthetic Double Bass String Set

The Pirastro Evah Pirazzi Slap Synthetic Double Bass String Set equips 3/4 upright basses for rockabilly and slap playing. All four strings use synthetic cores, with aluminum winding on G and chrome steel on D, A, and E. The medium-gauge set combines low tension with a warm tonal character.

For players seeking synthetic strings for slap bass, this configuration offers a complete G, D, A, and E setup. Its flexible playing feel suits bassists who prioritize comfortable string response during rhythmic passages. The warm, rounded sound also supports traditional pizzicato, the technique of plucking strings, in roots and jazz settings.

Pirastro identifies this configuration as manufacturer set number 445090 and specifies orchestra tuning for the range. Each string has a ball end for attachment at the tailpiece. The A and E feature polished chrome steel flat-wire winding. Matching the confirmed 3/4 size and medium gauge helps buyers select the intended replacement set for their instrument.
