An acoustic bass string is a finely braided or coiled wire that is attached to the bass to produce musical notes. The size of the string is usually indicated by the measurement of its diameter, which is expressed in thousandths of an inch (sometimes in millimeters).

In this case, the string in question has a diameter of .074 inches, which is considered a medium gauge string for an acoustic bass. The larger the diameter of the string, the louder and deeper it will sound, but it will also be more difficult to play because of the increased tension it will put on the fingers. Thinner strings have a softer, clearer sound, but can be more fragile and have a shorter life span.

It should also be noted that bass strings are often sold individually, rather than in sets, allowing musicians to replace specific strings based on their needs or playing preference. Thus, an acoustic bass string sold individually means that you are only buying one string, rather than a complete set of strings.
