La Bella760FS-CB-XL Deep Talkin' Bass Stainless Steel Flat Wound 6-String Bass Strings - Standard, Extra Scale
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
For an extra-scale six-string bass with a bridge that does not route strings through the body, this stainless-steel flatwound set includes a low B tapered 2 1/8 inches from its ball end. La Bella uses that taper to support low-B intonation. The crucial buying check is bridge routing: the set is expressly unsuitable for through-body designs, so confirm the string path before fitting a new set.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Extra-scale six-string basses with bridges that do not require through-body string routing.
- Six-string setups where the tapered low B is desired for improved intonation.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
