Customer reviews about Pirastro Obligato Double Bass 4/4-3/4

J

Well made all-rounder.

JDstrings 03.06.2013

These are top quality bass strings with synthetic core and metal winding. If you like the slightly softer feel of a synthetic cored string these are a good option. They have a full round sound and feel nice under the fingers.
I have fitted them on quite a few instruments and never had any complaints -they are certainly well made and seem long lasting. They are definitely better than cheaper synthetic cored strings that I hace tried.
They are great as a general purpose string for covering a range of styles. If however you play exclusively in one style (classical/arco or slap for example) you can probably find something more suitable. Strings are very much a matter of personal taste/what suits a particular instrument/playing style etc. so there are no hard and fast rules... whatever works for you! Definitely worth a try if you think they might be what you are after.

Great all-around double bass strings

nkrznar 24.01.2022

The feeling is good and flexible, tension is relatively low. Really good strings for all around players - very versatile string set. Great for jazz/pizz, also very good for arco playing.

Makes the NS design NXT sound more like an actual double bass

Jimmy van der Burgt 20.09.2024

I put these on my NS design NXT and it sounds much better then the normal NS design strings, only downside is that the tuning pegs on the bass are a bit small for these strings, I'll be replacing them with Hipshot replacement tunes which are better suited.
The strings sound and feel great.

Superb!

THEgreatVALDO 20.01.2018

These stings replaced the dreadful stock strings on my NS NXT4 EUB and transformed the instrument especially when bowed. They are a significant price but worth every penny!
