Best flats I've tried

La Bella has a good reputation for a reason.

These strings provide a good tonal balance, clarity and articulation down the neck, and a deep pleasant tone.

These strings gave me that motown tone I was looking for. They are also quite pleasant to the fingers. I would recommend them on a passive P-bass with rosewood fretboard, tone rolled down to 30-40%.

Deep Talkin' - nice players

Excellent set of strings! This was my first LaBella set but I will definitely consider them for my other (contra-)basses. Used this particular set on my (first!) fretless 4-string and I'm blown away by the quality. I will start experimenting with these on fretted bass on the next String Replacement Day.

ONe of the best flatwounds available

These strings have an excellent tone. They stay in tune and have just the right amount of tension. Once I started playing flat wound strings, I could never go back to round wounds.

Jamerson sound

Long lasting one of the best flat wounds around. Especially if you are after the more vintage Jameson sound. Great on P-bass or a semi hallow bass.

Great strings

Used those on Rickenbacker 4001, sounding great both on recordings and during live gigs.

Exactly what I was looking for

My first flatwounds, for my precision. Exactly as expected for playability and tone.

Quality thump

I just replaced an old set of these that were on my P-Bass for years. They still sounded great and stayed in tune, I just felt it was time to put on a new set. They're a little bright when they're new but it doesn't take long for them to settle into that flat wound sound you know and love. The quality of these strings is very high. They sound excellent, feel completely smooth and give you that thump. They are a bit on the expensive side, but you do pay for quality.

Too high tension

Be aware that the tension is super high which makes playing really hard. I experience these strings feel sticky, I would recommend the sound, but not playability, I would like to try to .103 strings…

Edit: after a while I can say I got used to these. Tension still quite high, but it plays super slick!

Smooth slinky and sound

The only string to put on your bass if you want to sound smooth and slinky.

Touching these is a tactile delight, impossible to not sound funky, impossible to not look more handsome, impossible to not sound more attractive to the opposite sex. All for £50. Amazing

My first flats, not my last

Although I'm hoping they will last me a while! Great feel and great tone.
