  • NS TRaditions strings
Size: Full Set
I was using the Helicor pizzicato string for my Palatino ve500. The first set was too long so I tried the 1/2 size set and they where also to long. They had a great sound but they where just not right for my bass. So I ordered a set of the NS Traditional 3/4 medium bass strings. Not only do they fit great (the Palatino ve500 has a 40 1/2" string length) but because they are 41 3/4" string length they fit perfectly, and they sound great. I modified my bass by using a cut down ebony tail piece and change the electronics. Which got as close to an acoustic upright bass as you can get. After adding these strings it put the sound over the top. Of course the bass will never be 100% upright sounding but I've got it at least 95%. The D'addario NS Traditional strings made the difference. Great strings. ... show more

  • Be careful do not try to use these on NS Design Omni NXTA bass
Size: Full Set
These are great strings but I made a mistake thinking my NS Design Omni NXTA bass was a 'Double Bass'. I am wrong. The Omni bass is smaller than the NS Design Double basses. It's not designed to use double bass strings. Just an FYI in case any other new owners of Omni basses make the same mistake.

  • High Quality, Like All D’Addario Products
Size: C String
I don’t have a point of comparison between these and other strings yet, but I have so far found these to meet or exceed all expectations.

  • Great Quality
Size: Full Set
Strings are great quality. However, they did not fit my upright bass even though D'addario's customer service told me they would.

  • Wonderful strings from a great company.
Size: Full Set
These are a massive upgrade from the stock strings in every way. They sound better, both pizz and arco, they feel better, they stay in tune better and they bow better. My biggest complaint with my NXT 4 was the bowed sound was thin and the E string was hardly useable with the bow. Now, I get those fantastic, thundering lows with the bow. I couldn't be happier with this set of strings. I would give them 10 stars if I could. ... show more

  • Big difference from the stock NS strings on the NXT
Size: Full Set
These are such an unbelievable upgrade to the strings that ship on the NXT! The feel just talking them out of the envelope is soo different. They are almost buttery compared to the stock strings and if you are planning on playing Arco they respond way better to a bow.

  • HUGE UPGRADE

What a HUGE difference! Fantastic sound and feel. This set of strings made the NS Design NXTa really enjoyable to play. Worth every penny.
