La Bella 820 Elite Flamenco Guitar Strings (Red Trebles) MT, Full Set

Got the new strings very quickly--thank you folks!--and they were exactly what I wanted. But I haven't yet installed them, but am looking forward to hear their new sound.

As always fast and east!

So hears my update on LaBella 820 Red new improved string set for Flamenco Guitar. I like them on my Cedar Cyprus Blanca JDZ. The trebles have lasted 4 1/2 weeks and the bass strings 2 1/2 weeks I think I could get 3-4 weeks on bass strings but they were wearing out and I did not want to break a string live. The tone is just a bit brighter than say DAddario EJ45 but very similar to EJ25C. They feel good to me the bass strings snap and sizzle and tune up very quickly. They also can produce nice warmth. When you dig in you can appreciate the responce and clarity of tone produced. The trebles are red like a nice Cabernet red wine. I like the color. They are rectified nylon so they are not as smooth or glassy like the LaBella 2001. I have played them with my fingers and a nylon DAVA pick. I like the sensitivity of the string as it reproduces great tone from the slightest touch to being able to reproduce great tone when I dig in too. They do feel different from what I'm used to but I like them and ordering from Strings By Mail is a breeze. LaBella also has great customer service.

I have been playing guitar for 49 years. In that time I have purchased guitar strings from multiple dozens of stores and online retail outlets. Strings by mail is the best (by far) I have ever purchased strings from.They have excellent customer service, great prices and fast delivery. 5 stars.

After reading about these strings on different forums, I had to try them on my flamenco guitar. The basses are deep and gutsy. The trebles project. One of the best flamenco strings made - Much more musical than the "2001" label.
