La Bella Bass Strings The Low Tension Flexible Flats provides the same classic sound without the "floppy string effect" associated with other low tension flat wound strings.
The strings are hand-wound and hand-polished with a round core for flexibility.
Stainless Steel Flat Wound, round core. .042, .056, .075, .100, .118
Total Tension in Lbs: 163.20 (1st 36.2, 2nd 34, 3rd 30.5, 4th 34.2, 5th 28.3)
All standard bass sets are LONG scale length. The 1st (G), 2nd (D) & 3rd (A) strings are 38” from ball-end to silk/taper. The 4th (E) & 5th (B) string are 36 ¾” from ball-end to silk/taper. Only the silk portion of the string should wrap around the tuning post or else the string will break.
This particular set is NOT suitable for basses with bridges that require strings to pass through the body of the instrument.
