Light gauge flat wounds
Love these as a lighter alternative flat wound set.Maybe not as low end as some, has a nice low midrange.Good choice for basses with weaker truss rods, and less tension.

MUD TONED.. DULL A/F
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.

Not What I Expected
Was going for the classic Motown sound, but didn’t get it. Even using a P Bass! Not sure what happened, but one more string to try.

Sweet but heavy
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.

well worth it but takes a while to break in
i can only use these on my short scale and down tuned 1/2 step... they are stiff stiff stiff.... you will need a new set up on your bass because these strings are like a bridge support... no, i mean a bridge cable over water type of support.... works good but it will literally tear the neck apart on a standard tuned 34" scale.... i think i snapped my truss rod... it was an american jazz neck from the 90's.... i must say they are not broken in so maybe they will loosen up a bit but be advised.... super taught strings...update: the strings have settled in nicely. i have them on my short scale (30.5") gibson SG bass and am now playing them in standard tuning for a classic tone christian rock band. they are very classic sounding solid body tone but brighten up really nice on the bridge pick up. even re-calibrated action and intonation again to compensate for break in. holds tuning pretty good... neck has adjusted to them nicely..10-02-16: ordered another set to put on my epiphone rivoli short scale i recently purchased. these strings are really good. old school tone. mellow deep warm

Amazing
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.

Good choice if you are careful
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.

Old school sound
I was looking for a bass guitar sound closer to that of a double bass. After trying lots of tone variations on both guitar and amplifier I hadn't really hit the 'sweet spot' . A friend recommended I try these strings and he was spot on. The bass sound is as close as you could get in sound to a bull fiddle with the bonus of tape wound, long lasting strings that are much kinder on your fingers.

Superb strings, commit to flats and spend the dosh!
Ideal with my Japanese Fender Precision Bass. Superb tension - possibly a little more rigid feeling than Chromes or Fender’s flats. Really great tone - a little more top end than I was expecting initially. They are playing in beautifully too. Had compliments on the tone from a couple of engineers too.They’re the most I’ve ever spent on strings, but they’re most definitely worth it if you are into flatwounds and want a set that will last you forever.

Perfect
Fantastic feel and sounding strings, I have been searching for that subtle Larry, Bernard type sound - well worth the additional cost
