La Bella Are The King of Strings And I’m Never Looking Back
Review by Tanner P. on 18 Apr 2019 review stating La Bella Are The King of Strings And I’m Never Looking Back Please Note: The Jazz Tapes are longer than most electric guitar scales, they work perfectly as long as you don’t cut the wrapping after you’ve wound them around the tuner post. I just tie the excess string into a knot.
I play fingerstyle on my electric guitar, and I have chronic pain in my hands. The Jazz Tapes solved all my problems I’ve had with comfort. They’re very light tension despite the huge gauges. This is because the metal core of the string isn’t that thick, its the outer layer of Nylon that gives it the huge gauges. Bc of the low tension, I am able to fret & bend without excess strain on my hands. But the low tension doesn’t come at the cost of tuning stability. I can play in standard, and in most open tunings with it able to hold up. They also feel sublime. The polished nylon wrap makes it feel like I’m sliding against glass an its so lovely.
For my style of playing guitar the tone works perfectly. The wound strings sound super fat with lots of fundamental. The strings are very responsive to dynamics and have a lot of focus in the low end. For some styles you might sacrifice some clarity, so I don’t think I’d suggest them for some rock or metal styles. But for jazz, fingerstyle, and many other styles I will never buy another kind of string. LaBella proved that they know what they’re doing. And stringsbymail have gotten my strings to me very fast every time. So I’ll be ordering these from them again.
Thanks for helping with my string journey!
