Designed especially for arco, or bowed playing, this 3\/4-size string offers quick response and short sustain. Choose light, medium, or heavy gauge to suit your instrument's setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor bassists selecting an orchestral replacement D string, the three gauges provide different tension levels within the same construction. Light carries the lowest load, medium provides an intermediate tension, and heavy carries the highest. Musicians choosing a steel-core string for bowed repertoire can compare these specifications when refining their setup for rehearsals, concerts, and classical ensemble work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePirastro specifies ball-end attachments and ruby tailpiece silk across all three options. Rust red peg-end markings identify the D string, with additional colors distinguishing light and heavy versions. The series supports stable tuning and readiness after installation. Each configuration fits a 3\/4 double bass in orchestra tuning and uses a separate manufacturer article number for accurate replacement selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCarbon Steel Rope Core:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supports responsive bowed articulation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChrome Steel Winding:\u003c\/strong\u003e Completes the construction for orchestral use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarm Tonal Character:\u003c\/strong\u003e Suits traditional ensemble repertoire.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShort Sustain:\u003c\/strong\u003e Helps successive notes remain distinct.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree Gauge Options:\u003c\/strong\u003e Offers light, medium, and heavy tensions for 3\/4 instruments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTuning Stability:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supports consistent pitch during playing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGauge Differences\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight (Dünn):\u003c\/strong\u003e Lowest tension at 59.5 lb; article 341210; rust red\/rose-colored peg-end silk.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMedium (Mittel):\u003c\/strong\u003e Intermediate tension at 65.5 lb; article 341220; rust red peg-end silk.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy (Stark):\u003c\/strong\u003e Highest tension at 74.1 lb; article 341230; rust red\/olive green peg-end silk.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pirastro\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flexocor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Individual double bass string\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch:\u003c\/strong\u003e D\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTuning:\u003c\/strong\u003e Orchestra\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstrument Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGauge Options:\u003c\/strong\u003e Light, medium, heavy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCore:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-tensile carbon steel rope\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWinding:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chrome steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTailpiece Attachment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ball end\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTailpiece-End Silk:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ruby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Pirastro","offers":[{"title":"Heavy","offer_id":50816074252485,"sku":"PIRA-1FBDF","price":131.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium","offer_id":50816074285253,"sku":"PIRA-1FBD","price":131.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Light","offer_id":50816074318021,"sku":"PIRA-1FBDD","price":131.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/3085\/3829\/files\/1-pirastro-1fbdf_65c079fa-5e5e-4655-8a0b-7086c7cee4bf.jpg?v=1793116161","url":"https:\/\/avlgear.com\/products\/pirastro-flexocor-d-double-bass-string-3-4","provider":"AVLGEAR","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
