767-6F Bass VI Flat : Lovely Strings

7 years ago

I ordered these for my Harley Benton GuitarBass. They were actually about 2.5 inches too long being intended for a Bass VI with a tremolo bridge arrangement. However it was possible to make them work by reverse threading the two lowest strings through the tailpiece but even so a little of the thick winding of the low E string went round its tuning peg shaft. The sound is really excellent if you play jazz but I think they would work for other styles also. The .095" low E is vastly better than the .084" that my instrument came with.

I have subsequently managed to obtain some Labella HC6F flatwound strings for the Shecter Hellcat VI. These are identical to the 767-6Fs but are the perfect length for the Harley Benton Guitarbass. So I will use these from now on and keep the 767-6Fs in case of a breakage emergency.
