30 inches. Pyramid, LaBella sound best IMHO.. Labella are cheaper. Try www.juststrings.com

the bass' scale is 30, but due to the extra string length necessitated by the trapeze tailpiece, you'll need strings for a 32"....

Lookie here

imho, LaBella's are THE strings to use for the Hofner Violin bass & copies
