Expressively Smooth Strings With a Bite
A bright, authoritative tone and a silky-smooth feel — two elements that do not typically co-exist in your standard electric guitar string. Enter La Bella’s Super Polished. Comprising a signature flexible core and stainless steel outer windings, Super Polished strings bolster your guitar with an ideal mixture of cutting roundwound tone, a hint of warmth, and a superb feel. Through La Bella’s proprietary multi-stage smoothing process, the roundwound ridges are polished, giving you a slick, flatwound-like sensation. When put to the test here at Sweetwater, these strings delivered the powerful, punchy response we expected from traditional roundwound strings but provided a slicker, velvety fret-hand texture. Roundwound or flatwound? There's no need to compromise. String up your favorite electric guitar with La Bella Super Polished strings, and experience a best-of-both-worlds approach to highly expressive playing.
La Bella: centuries of expertise in each set of 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. The company’s heritage reaches back to the Mari family of Salle, Italy, in the 17th century, and they became famous throughout Europe — even supplying violin strings to Amati and Stradivari. In the early 20th 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.
