The set is well balanced both in terms of harmonic response and playing response. All the way across the dynamic and the frequency spectrum, they are clear and warm, and reliable and predictable in terms of managing dynamics. Scaled to fit 3/4 size bass with a playing length of 41 3/4 inches (1060mm). Medium tension strings are preferred by most players.
