Zyex Light Tensions
Size: Light Tension Style: Full Set
I am more of a guitar player that plays upright bass also, which is why I decided to try out the Zyex Light Tension strings. Amazing tones from the strings. Very enjoyable to play upright with these strings on it. I wouldn't even consider buying a different type of string at this point. It was a sin to have the old strings on my upright compared to the way these sound. You can hear these strings being played on my bass in videos that I am on at my friend's web site: [...] Or come hear us playing around Cleveland sometime. I will even let you try them out for yourself if you happen to come see our gig. ... show more

Piano like tone
Size: Light Tension Style: Full Set
I play mostly jazz / pizzicato. I put these on and immediately noticed a much brighter, piano like tone. I think I am really going to like them.

Great G and D for pizz after break-in period
Size: Light Tension Style: Full Set
Ok...let me clarify. The E and A get 3.5 stars, and the D and G get 7 stars!! The E and A lack Buenos both pozz and arco. The D and G are truly a jazzer's dream. Now...they sound...TWANGY at first. The first time I played a new set, it was wild! But, they calm down quickly (a week or so) if you play a lot. The D and G are sublime for pizz. I have played just about every string out there, and the light D and G for pizz are gut-like in feel under both hands (especially the left), but growl like Spirocores! If you dont buy the set and you are a jazzer and play primarily pizz, these will blow your mind! I use Zyex light G and D, Spiro Weigh A and Spiro Mittel E. Even tension and absolutely are loud and clear! Give THAT a try! ... show more

Size: Light Tension Style: Full Set
I wrote a review on a different device but it isn't showing up --- product description: Condition: Used - Very Good - Minor cosmetic imperfection on front of item (less than 1/4"x1/4"). Minor cosmetic imperfection on top or sides of item (less than 1/4"x1/4"). Minor cosmetic imperfection on bottom or back of item (less than 1/2"x1/2"). Item will come in original packaging. Packaging will be damaged. Product received: tried to install the G string and found it to be broken. Yes, broken. The outer winding of the entire string was broken in one small spot (ok, less than 1/4" x 1/4" !) which caused the outer shell of the string to slide up and down the core. Hardly a "cosmetic" imperfection. Unfortunately I am outside the return and product support windows so I don't know what options I have. ... show more
