Innovation ROCKABILLY BLACKS Black Nylon Tapewound Double Bass Strings, Medium Tension
Innovation Double Bass Strings use a unique, non-metallic core which provides a gut-like tone and response without the cost or maintenance of gut upright bass strings. They hold their pitch well in climate and temperature changes, with many of the strings equally suited for pizz or arco playing.
A mid-tension string, the Rockabilly Blacks were designed to replace gut strings for slapping. They have a warmer, darker tone but a softer high end that produces a lot of volume. The synthetic core makes these strings feel and sound like gut strings, but without the expense and maintenance of them!
For those that don’t play slap-style bass, the Rockabilly Blacks are also equally suited for jazz playing. Their pizz tone has great sustain and grown, without being too overbearing.
