An Optimized Version for Small Measurements
This new version was designed to meet the specific needs of small-sized double basses: a reduced tension allows for greater flexibility while maintaining a stable playing feel. The goal is clear: to offer a more comfortable setup on instruments with short scale length, such as 1/10 sizes, and also adapt to certain 1/16 sizes.
For Whom and For What Uses?
Ideal for young double bass players and musicians seeking a softer sensation under the fingers. This reduced tension is very suitable for educational work, early years of learning, and regular practice where comfort and ease of sound production are priorities.
The Sound
With lower tension, the set favors an easier response and a softer feel, which helps produce sound with less effort. The final tonal color will also depend on your double bass (setup, bridge, soundpost, fingerboard condition), but this type of setup generally promotes a more accessible and progressive playing experience.
