  • Sweet but heavy
Size: 52/110
I inherited an '84 P-bass and looked at it as an opportunity to set up in James Jamerson style somewhat. Given the extra tension, nut variances, and the fact that the old bass needed a setup anyway, I just took bass and strings to my setup guy and turned him loose. A week later I picked it up and it looks and plays great. Recently bought a Fender Stage 800 and the thing sounds fantastic thru that amp with pick or fingers. With a pick I guess it's like Carol Kaye and with a finger it's like JJ. I have also used it on a couple of recordings and it really does have that classic sound. My regular gig bass is a Fender Aerodyne Jazz bass. It's light and with D'Addario medium rounds, quite easy to hold and play all night, and versatile enough to get the variety of sounds I need playing in cover bands. The P-bass with these heavy flats has one classic sound - it's a great sound, but that's it. And it is much harder to play - it might hurt your hands somewhat. I played a 3.5 hour show the other night with it and have had some pain. So I may use it occasionally, but it won't be my first bass. But these strings sure get the sound right IMHO. ... show more

  • Just as advertised. Really deep resonation.
Size: 52/110
I bought my first set a few weeks ago. I have purchased two more sets since. I am an amateur bass player at best. I have many bass' and put the first set on a buttercreme P bass. Geez, did that make a difference in the sound. I am used to tape wounds and wanted more of the Motown sound; the deep thump. These strings are just "huge" in comparison to anything I have ever put on a bass. Beware, you may have some tooling to do on the nut. I put a set on a Yamaha and just put a set on a Peavey jazz bass. Wow, the deep pop is there. The strings are really smooth and much more quiet than I expected. The put the bass in "Beast Mode" I have 13 bass' and will buy more sets of these strings. Costly? Yep they are. I view them better than Roto Sound or the Fender flats and recommend these strings a ton. They do require me to dig in a bit more due to their giant size. The E strong is just immense and I needed to swap out a nut, having to lightly increase the radius of the nut slot for the E and A strings, just a bit. These strings are all they bill up to be. The sound is deep and intense, if that is what you are seeking. Tone down the treble and be prepared to wipe out your garage windows. What a great product, even for my amateur playing self. I heartily recommend these strings. ... show more

  • MUD TONED.. DULL A/F
Size: 52/110
These Strings made my Fav.. Bass The absolute worst . I himmed and hawwed about buying these strings.. Seeing how i dont have a any success growing a "Money Tree" Brightness just plain sucks.. These are MUD... These Strings completely changed my Tone.. No quick adjustment made me happy. Not to mention where the Strings overlapped themselves in its coil for packing.. Had very dark spots... Like metal rot had started. If you are wonding if its my rig ? I can assure its def not.. Ampeg Svt Pro 4 Eden cabs and Schecter 4 bass.. I had installed Erinie Ball Flat wounds on my other 4 string SGR w/Seymore Duncan P/Js and had much success in elimination of that occasional bright tone from my middle finger without any loss in tone and Punch. Labella's Sound and Tone just isnt for me. Some of you may achieve happiness with These for the Style of Music your playing. Def not for Metal and I cant even imagine these used in other genres. Just 2 F/Dull. Playing was like wriiting your name with the Dullest pencil you have ever used. The cool thing about these is .. The Micro sized numbered Dices that came on the Strings to Idiot proof installation. Arg !!! And No they didnt add anymore low end. They where so muddy I had to Dial down the low end. Unfortunately Labella didnt impress me and I wont ever Buy this brand again. I have had my best Sounds Using Ernie Balls and D'addarios. My next try is The RotoSounds Steve Harris strings. Unfortunately I can't take a pic to show you Due to the strings over all Stainless Shimmer and low buck Camera in this phone. If you Own a $5g Frettless bass with Super Hot pick ups.. You will probably have a difference of opinion. ... show more

  • Good choice if you are careful
Size: 52/110
I’ve used these over the years off and on. I usually use the lightest gauge 760’s , but I picked up a ‘57 reissue p bass and decided to give them a try once again. The trick to these (and it’s critical) is to have your truss rod adjusted so that the neck is flat, then lower the action ( or shim neck) so that they sit pretty close to the fingerboard- not too low, but definitely don’t allow the tension of these to dictate what the setup is-YOU decide that. Otherwise things can get out of hand pretty quickly with these and you’ll have neck issues. Once set up properly, these give a really solid pleasing sound, and very even output. ... show more

  • Great strings!
Size: 52/110
Awesome strings! I like big, fat strings and these are perfect. I tried the rotosound tru bass and they were too thick for the nut on my Precision. I could have had the nut shaved down or purchased a new nut altogether but it seemed like kind of a bigger job than it seems so I abandoned that idea. Labella 0760M strings are slightly thinner and enough that they fit on my basses fine. This is a review for the SECOND set I bought in one month. I loved the first one so much that i purchased another set for my other bass! Will purchase another for the third bass! ... show more

  • Well-made, nice characteristics once you adapt your plucking force
Size: 52/110
Pro: Top quality manufacturing, excellent characteristics for 50s-70s R&B, soul, and funk with very little adjustment to normal flatwound technique. Con: When I played these for the first time, I did a Quantum Leap into Donald "Duck" Dunn's body and now I'm stuck in Topanga Canyon in 1977 and I miss my family. ... show more

  • Amazing
Size: 52/110
Are they heavy? Yes. Will you have to do a new setup on your bass to run these? Sure. But that's not a big deal. Or take it to a shop if you don't want to do it yourself. I love the high tension of them. I love the feedback they give you. I find that with these I can play both faster and with more feel. With floppy strings it's like I never know quite when my plucking hand is going to break over the string. With these having much less give I know, and it lets me play better and with more confidence. I've tried the other 760s (FLs, FSs, etc.). They were all great. But none of them quite had the sound and feel that these do. If you are thinking of trying them then by all means go for it. ... show more
