  • LaBella - The People’s Flats!!

    Strings are not “one-size-fits-all”, and there are so many brands that it can be a bit confounding. That said, if you have at least decided to be in the flatwound camp, LaBella will probably have an offering that is to your liking. They have standard long, extra long, as well as short scale. They have nylon wrap and stuff like that, too. They offer four or five gauge selections in the standard steel flat long scale from light to very heavy. They even have a surprising variety of special Hofner Beatle Bass sets. I had the heavy “Jamerson ” long scale (760FH I think it’s called) set on my Fender AVRI Jazz Bass, and stepped down to the standard gauge (760FS) to give the neck a break on tension. I wish now I’d gone even one step lower to the 760FM as the tension didn’t change as much as I might like. I was worried about losing that beautiful 1960s thunk. But the thunk is still there with the 760FS, almost identical to what the heavies had! The G is still a bit twangy, but I know that will tame. LaBella has two lighter sets that I can try of this same flatwound string. That is, to me, very accommodating, and proves how dedicated Labella is to being The People’s Flats. I’ve tried others - DR Legends are nice - but LaBella is hard to beat as a company if you want to try out some strong, punchy, silky smooth basic flats. They are a fantastic American company, too. They have custom wrapped special gauges of bronze baritone acoustic strings for me, and they are the coolest string company out there for that level of service. I love LaBella !! Try some!!

  • Fantastic flats, I'm hard pressed to ever try any other

    I bought these along with TI flats, to test drive both of them and keep the ones I liked the most on my Fender P bass (with EMG GZR). Needless to say, these absolutely blew TIs out of the water (IME, IMO). Great feeling, great tension and great balance between strings. Where TIs felt like wet noodles in half a step down tuning (they were barely ok to me in standard tuning as well), these were just fantastic. Tone wise, this is it, this is how I want flats to sound like - thumpy, warm, big lows and subdued highs. I still get fantastic mids out of em, and they work wonders with the different tone knob settings. Rock, funk, Motown, jazz, whatever you need, it's there! Keep em on your bass for years and they get better, enjoy your vintage goodness, I know I will!

  • Magical

    LaBella flats... I tried other brands but didn't convince me and now I don't think I will ever use another set of neither roundwound nor another brand. The 760FS fits perfect, they just feel amazing right out the pack, there’s just something magical about them! Enjoy if you buy!
