Designed to fit all common upright bass scales (1/2 to 4/4), these strings deliver authentic natural gut tone and feel, ideal for genres like Rockabilly, Bluegrass, and Country. Lightweight at 159g, they combine durability with classic sound for professional and aspiring bassists alike. ## Description Simulated “gut” texture on full length of strings. The strings have a light to medium-soft texture that has been "spiral cut" into the string. This slight texture facilitates better gripping of the strings for lightning fast pizzicato playing, and drag triplets with with almost no effort. The strings "grab" the air and force it to move, producing more mid and low end tone when playing acoustically. All of our nylon string sets come as a 6 string “bump” assortment (6 total strings of various gauge. See photos.) for 1/2, 3/4, and 4/4 size double bass. The idea is that some players prefer thinner, lower tension strings while others prefer thicker, higher tension stings. Why not offer a wide array of thickness and tension all in one package of strings? This is exactly what we do! Our string sets also include rubber dipped metal ends. NO KNOTS to come untied in the middle of your set! We are proud to be the only company offering this configuration. You need strings that sound great when played acoustic or amplified, strings that won't tear your fingers up if you need to play 3 sets in one night, strings that stay in tune in hot/cold/humid/dry climates. You need Superior Bassworks Kevlar cored nylon strings for double bass. Perfect for Rockabilly, billy, Bluegrass, Country/Western,and much much more! The string sizes included in each pack are: .170, .155, .130, .105, .095, .080 (sizes in inches). If your bass has never had non-steel strings installed, please keep in mind that some modification of the tailpiece string slots, bridge string notches, nut string notches, and tuning machine string holes may be required. This is completely normal, and will not prevent you from switching to other string types in the future. Please measure your bass before ordering. If you are not confident making these adjustments yourself, please consult a professional luthier or more experienced bass player for assistance. These strings are not recommended for school orchestra students. Review: アンプが必要 魂柱に注意 ２年半経っても使えなくはない - 月に８～10時間で2年半近く使っての感想です。 音質は元々役目を果たした弦の様な音がしていますので、アンプを通せば劣化はあまり気にならないです。 生音は、４弦がちょっと変な振動をしている様ですが、駒やナットの調整もあるので弦だけのせいとも言えません。 価格がかなり値上がりしました。 シリーズが色々ありますので注意が必要です。少し安いと思って買うと、表面のガットの加工がされていなかったりします。 スタンダードではなくデラックスであるかの確認が必要です。 －－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－ スラップ用に購入しました。 価格が半額の、weedwackerより良いです。 表面がガット弦の様な加工がされていて、指が引っかかり易いので楽です。 弦は非常に柔らかく、弾き易い事の引き換えに、音量が小さく(ヘフナーのバイオリンベースを生音で弾いているくらい)、ボンヤリしています。 しかし、この弾き易さと音質を求めていましたので、音量はアンプで何とかすれば良いと考えています。 弾き易い、私の好みのセットは、.170,.130,.095,.080です。 問題点は、ドラムの音量が大きいと、スラップ音しか聞こえない事です。 マルチバンドのコンプレッサーで何とかしています。 また、弦が太いため、糸巻き部で弦が他の弦と接触して押されてしまい、 チューニングの際に、合わせたはずが、ずれてしまっている事があります。 ブリッジへの圧力が弱まるため、魂柱が倒れてしまいました。 魂柱の調整工具を持っていたため、難なく立て直しはできましたが、 注意が必要です。 Review: really activates the top - Superb sound and tension on the g .80 and the d .105... I was really unhappy with rotosound rs4000's g string it had a wine and twang to it that was unacceptable at least on my cheap plywood bass... maybe the rosewood fingerboard wasn't perfectly true on my bass... the extra pull on the bridge via tension really activates the top of the bass making the e a d & g all louder... I have kept the rs4000 e and a for now but maybe when the g & d finish stretching I might try the "a" maybe even the "e"... I'm extremely happy even if I end up using only two of the strings. Rotosound should be taking notes these beat their g and d any day... the texture makes it easy to grab when drag triplet playing... the texture feels a little ruff to my left hand which is good... feels like dry gut... great strings.... very happy ## Features - Perfect strings for Rockabilly, Bluegrass, billy, Country/Western, and more! - Fits most 1/2, 5/8, 3/4, 7/8, and 4/4 scale b. - 6 string options included in every pack. .170, .155, .130, .105, .095, .080 (sizes in inches) - 100% "synthetic gut" - nylon/kevlar construction to simulate the tone and feel of natural gut strings. - Please read the full item description below for even more information about this product. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00865F1X2 | | Brand | Superior Bassworks | | Brand Name | Superior Bassworks | | Coating Description | Uncoated | | Coating description | Uncoated | | Color | Dirty Gut | | Colour | Dirty Gut | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 87 Reviews | | Finish Type | Uncoated | | Instrument | Bass Guitar | | Manufacturer | Superior Bassworks | | Manufacturer Part Number | SBWDLXGUT | | Model Name | Deluxe | | Model Number | SBWDLXGUT | | Recommended Uses For Product | Rockabilly, Psychobilly, Bluegrass, Country/Western | | String Gauge | .170, .155, .130, .105, .095, .080 | | String Material Type | Nylon | | String gauge | .170, .155, .130, .105, .095, .080 | | String material type | Nylon | | UPC | 752423487332 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Superior Bassworks - **Colour:** Dirty Gut - **Instrument:** Bass Guitar - **String gauge:** .170, .155, .130, .105, .095, .080 - **String material type:** Nylon ## Images ![Superior Bassworks DELUXE Upright Double Bass Strings Dirty Gut Color FULL SET - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/718iyekZh9L.jpg) ![Superior Bassworks DELUXE Upright Double Bass Strings Dirty Gut Color FULL SET - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71aFoyy5DOL.jpg) ![Superior Bassworks DELUXE Upright Double Bass Strings Dirty Gut Color FULL SET - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71G6aFRHl8L.jpg) ![Superior Bassworks DELUXE Upright Double Bass Strings Dirty Gut Color FULL SET - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41jFcXF2BaL.jpg) ![Superior Bassworks DELUXE Upright Double Bass Strings Dirty Gut Color FULL SET - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71HTiZ39GVL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Are these strings at least 60 inches long ?** A: I just measured the thickest one. I read 68 inches. **Q: whats the difference between these and the set that sells for 20 bucks less?** A: Deluxe set is textured and sounds like plain gut. Standard set is smooth like weedwackers **Q: can you bow with the deluxe set since they are textured?** A: Yes, you can bow. Use a good quality rosin and you should have no problems, It took about a week for my strings to stop stretching after that the intonation has been excellent. These strings come with a "Lifetime" warranty. **Q: What is the different between the Standard and Deluxe set ?** A: The deluxe set has more of a gut string feel in my opinion. However, the E string is very flexible and has very low tension. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ アンプが必要 魂柱に注意 ２年半経っても使えなくはない *by K***K on 4 January 2024* 月に８～10時間で2年半近く使っての感想です。 音質は元々役目を果たした弦の様な音がしていますので、アンプを通せば劣化はあまり気にならないです。 生音は、４弦がちょっと変な振動をしている様ですが、駒やナットの調整もあるので弦だけのせいとも言えません。 価格がかなり値上がりしました。 シリーズが色々ありますので注意が必要です。少し安いと思って買うと、表面のガットの加工がされていなかったりします。 スタンダードではなくデラックスであるかの確認が必要です。 －－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－ スラップ用に購入しました。 価格が半額の、weedwackerより良いです。 表面がガット弦の様な加工がされていて、指が引っかかり易いので楽です。 弦は非常に柔らかく、弾き易い事の引き換えに、音量が小さく(ヘフナーのバイオリンベースを生音で弾いているくらい)、ボンヤリしています。 しかし、この弾き易さと音質を求めていましたので、音量はアンプで何とかすれば良いと考えています。 弾き易い、私の好みのセットは、.170,.130,.095,.080です。 問題点は、ドラムの音量が大きいと、スラップ音しか聞こえない事です。 マルチバンドのコンプレッサーで何とかしています。 また、弦が太いため、糸巻き部で弦が他の弦と接触して押されてしまい、 チューニングの際に、合わせたはずが、ずれてしまっている事があります。 ブリッジへの圧力が弱まるため、魂柱が倒れてしまいました。 魂柱の調整工具を持っていたため、難なく立て直しはできましたが、 注意が必要です。 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ really activates the top *by J***C on 12 November 2017* Superb sound and tension on the g .80 and the d .105...

I use the 170, 155, 105, 80 which I found had the most uniform tension across the strings. They have a softer attack which is more muted compared to other types of strings. I read alot of reviews and I was unsure if the E and A would be strong and loud enough with the rest of the set. I found that the A was perfect but the E was just a little weak on volume and sustain, but the notes on the E String are still clear and pronounced and the volume / sustain was not a problem for me. This was my experience with my Engelhardt 3/4 bass. ## Frequently Bought Together - Superior Bassworks DELUXE Upright Double Bass Strings Dirty Gut Color FULL SET - Superior Bassworks Ultimate Upright Double Bass Endpin Rubber Tip for 10.0-12.5mm Diameter Large Endpins --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/388251472-superior-bassworks-deluxe-upright-double-bass-strings-dirty-gut-color](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/388251472-superior-bassworks-deluxe-upright-double-bass-strings-dirty-gut-color) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-07-26*
