Double Bass Odering strings online - ???

[nathanmcnathan]

Hi everybody, I'm about to order some helicore orchestras online, but I have a question before spending the money.

It appears that there are two different types of medium strings, one being "straight" - what's this mean? I don't want to order the wrong set, so any input would be really helpful.
Thanks!

Those, of course, are the heterosexual strings.

niceto know, but I was looking for an actual answer...

They have a toll-free number. So maybe call them.

Violins strings are sometimes offered straight in tubes instead of coiled.
Maybe it's the same thing?

that would make some sense... I'm going to try calling them sometime to ask them...
