    Evah Pirazzi Gold/Slap Upright Bass Strings

    Pirastro

    Our Low Price: $295.62
    Don't be fooled by the "slap" in their name -- this is far from a one-dimensional string set. It's what I would call the first legitimate "three-way hybrid" set. It's equally well-suited for pizz, arco, AND slap. (We've never had a string we could say...
