    Double Bass Back on Zyex (+HH)

    After enjoying a time with Obligatos, I’m back on Zyex mediums. The Obligatos had a beautiful arco sound - very easy to bow - and nice pizz sound, felt great under the hands, sounded great in the practice room but didn’t translate well to the stage. Just didn’t amplify well on gigs and found...

    Double Bass WOW !! Let's hear it for the string drawer (Props for Zyex).

    It's often been pointed out that strings are bass-specific. One bass likes a certain string - another bass hates it. I just order a new set of Perpetuals for my 7/8 Shen Gemunder. The first ones lasted about a year and a half. That bass really loves the Perpetuals. I have been having 'issues'...

    Double Bass Perpetuals - Zyex - Krivo Pickup ?

    I just played Spiro Mittles for years, as that what my teacher told me to play. But then Covid and and I started looking at Talkbass string threads and the Odyssey began. The Sirens of gut, innovations, etc calling to me and my bass. Anyway, I jumped on the ship hoping to arrive at string...

    Double Bass String Choice for a quiet upright bass

    Hi there, I just started playing upright bass. I have experimented quite a bit with guitar and some with electric bass before. I think my ears are good enough to compare the sound of this upright bass to other ones by means of tone complexity, harmonics present in the tone, tone definition and...

    Double Bass Suggestions to Replace Spirocore Medium High C string on a 5/8th bass

    I'm quite happy with my 5-string Upton 5/8, which is strung with spiro mediums up and down. I'm finding the high C string very bright, even twangy, after playing it for a year, and by now I thought it would be a bit more broken in. It's also quite stiff, to my mind.I am thinking a Zyex might be...
