An acoustic bass string sold individually in .0110 gauge is a replacement for a steel string acoustic bass.

The string is made of steel wire wrapped around a central steel core. The diameter of the string is .011 inch (about .28 mm), which means it is relatively thin and will fit an acoustic bass that requires moderate tension.

Acoustic bass strings are available in a variety of drawbar sizes, which determine the tension of the string and therefore the force needed to press it against the fingerboard. Thicker strings tend to have a louder, deeper tone, while thinner strings have a softer, clearer tone.

When purchasing a single string for an acoustic bass, it is important to choose the right size string for your bass, as using the wrong string can cause tension and tone problems, and may even damage your instrument.
