Thomastik Spirocore Double Bass Strings - £75.
Rabbie replied to ambient's topic in EUBs & Double Basses For Sale

Here’s a wonderful pair of gut strings very rare to find on our shores. Made in Italy by Toro strings, a family business in the Abruzzo region, which has been making quality strings for a very long time: here’s the site link http://www.torostrings.it/english/index.html I managed to import these just before Brexit and I have had them on one of my basses for about 6 months. They are made of mutton serosa and have the kind of tension that would equal a Gamut Medium (I.e. very easy on the hands yet excellent tone and sustain). I am moving away from gut for a little while, hence the sale. They are in wonderful condition because, for reasons I won’t have to explain, they haven’t had the chance to be gigged…ever! The D strings is a double twist type, like the Gamut Pistoy, whilst the G is a more regular twist, like the Gamut Lyon or Pirastro Chorda.

SOLD - Gamut guts (G Lyon and D Pistoy)

Gamut Lyon G and Gamut Pistoy D. both medium gauge. Best gut strings on the market! 8 months use. I prefer to sell together. Price new would be £85 for the G and £150 for the D plus lots of money for shipping and import duties from the US, so I think the price is fair. The Stings have been well maintained and regularly oiled when required so they have a long life left in them. the photo is of them mounted on my bass, but if you want I’ll take photos of them separately off the bass. Selling because I am switching that bass to wrapped guts and synthetics and I have spare gut strings in the house if I want to go back to them. Free U.K. postage

NOTE: I can split the set as follows: - A and E for £70 - SOLD - D and G for £160 Only a couple of weeks on my bass as per proof in the photos. I was experiment with sounds for a new work coming up and this sound was not suited to it. Other than that, wonderful strings: good quality guts, very low tension, yet good acoustic volume. Super easy to play, A and E very well balanced to the gut G and D. postage included. Price of theses trig S is £280 so save yourself £50 for basically new strings! thank you
