Superb Tapewound Bass Strings from La Bella

Glide effortlessly from note to note with a set of La Bella Black Nylon Tape Deep Talkin' Bass strings. These premium tapewound bass strings feature black nylon wrappings over stainless steel windings, providing you with a remarkable balance of smooth action and rich tone. They're an excellent choice for standard electric basses, particularly if you prefer a combination of deep lows and complex overtones, but you'll also find La Bella's Black Nylon Tape strings an excellent fit for your fretless or acoustic bass guitar.

Centuries of expertise in each set of La Bella strings

La Bella strings are the top choice for musicians ranging from world-famous artists such as Willie Nelson, Bryan Adams, and Ron Carter to everyday players like many of us here at Sweetwater. Their heritage reaches back to the Mari family of Salle, Italy, in the seventeenth century, and they became famous throughout Europe, even supplying violin strings to Amati and Stradivari. In the early twentieth century, brothers Emilio and Olinto Mari moved the string operation to New York, founding the modern La Bella company. Today, La Bella strings are considered among the finest in the world, and we think you'll agree when you hear what they can do for your favorite instrument.

La Bella Black Nylon Tapewound Deep Talkin' Bass Strings Features:

  • Standard-gauge (.043–.135) strings for standard, fretless, and acoustic 6-string bass guitars
  • Black nylon outer wrappings provide smooth action for gliding between frets
  • Stainless steel windings deliver deep lows, bright high-end harmonics, and extended sustain
  • Ships in Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) to prevent tarnishing and aging

Reviews

Awesome for fretless
Just got a new 6 string fretless with a softer fingerboard. I have used roundwounds previously on other fretless basses and I am not a fan of flats. I have been wanting to try these and I was pleasantly surprised! Great solid sound with the mwah I was looking for!
Really Great Strings
I have been struggling trying to find the perfect set of strings for my six-string fretless bass. Rounds sound great but are hard on the fretboard and flats are great for the fretboard but don't have the expressiveness of the rounds. But the La Bella Tapewounds are the perfect alternative. You can get a great "upright" tone playing by the neck and a very articulate tone playing by the pick-ups. The best part is that all of this great tone doesn't seem to get lost in the mix like some other strings and they last for a long time. For me -- problem solved.
Music background: Bassist for 40+ years
Excellent
These are the best bass strings I've ever played. Very warm and dark, but yet different from flatwounds. The nylon makes them easy on the fingers, and easy on the fretboard/fingerboard, and the longevity is incredible; I had a set on a fretless bass for two years and the tone barely deteriorated. The reason for the heavier gauges is that they are lower tension than "normal" strings.
Good acoustic bass guitar strings
I'm glad I switched to the LaBella tapewound strings from the bronze strings that came on the inexpensive acoustic bass I purchased. They have a much warmer/richer sound. Not as bright and as good for slapping and tapping as bronze or steel strings.
If you would prefer a more round wound and/or fretless kind of sound, something that makes your bass have more of singing quality then I would invest in these LaBella strings. They take a little breaking in but then stay in tune and last longer than most strings.
