The Innovation Psycho Slap Double Bass Strings have a unique, non-metallic core which provides a gut-like tone without the cost or maintenance of gut upright bass strings. They hold their pitch well in climate and temperature changes, and are equally suited for pizzicato (plucking) and arco (bowing).
The Psychobillies are thicker-gauged strings with low tension and a clear outer winding, and they have a big fat sound with good sustain. The tone, when used for Psycho-slap, is very aggressive. The outer winding is softer than metal, so they shouldn't be too abrasive on your fingers, and they're easy enough to get a grip on - even with sweaty fingers. They are also nicely suited for jump swing and blues, where getting a decent volume is an issue.
