Red Diamond strings are designed for modern performance practice at a=440.
Gamut Red Diamond strings represent the sound of the bass as it should be.
Our Red Diamond line of gut bass strings are designed to satisfy the needs of active, professional bass players who need that real gut sound for jazz, bluegrass, blues, rockabilly, and other musical forms that require a strong bottom end to the sound and the stylistic stage presence of an upright bass. Red Diamond strings are the solution for worry-free durability whatever the conditions of the performance situation.
The Red Diamond g-1 and d-2 strings are made of the finest beef serosa (gut), twisted in our famous Lyon-style, and varnished to protect the strings from adverse environmental conditions and provide durability, even in wet and warm conditions.
The A-3 and E-4 strings have high twist gut cores for flexibility and long sustain, seasoned carefully and then wound with copper wire for a rich, low register. Red Diamond string gauges are based on the popular Medium gauge from our Academie line of bass strings.
Red Diamond strings are the solution for worry-free durability whatever the conditions of the performance situation. Full-bodied timbre and sustain power, perfect in tone. We are confident that you will find these strings affordable, reliable, and durable.
