thebrig Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 After trying many brands of flats over the years, I have found the set I really like. Problem is, I fitted them around six months ago, and I cannot remember what make they are. Is there anybody out there who recognises them? They have terracotta wraps on them.

Happy Jack Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 That's definitely terracotta rather than red? It's not a trick of the camera? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham A Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Think they could be La Bella Deep Talkin Flats. I 've recently fitted some to my G&L Tribute L2000, they have the same terracotta coloured threads and they sound awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Jack Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Hence my original question - I was guessing FLs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EssentialTension Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 (edited) La Bella Deep Talkin' Flats 760FX have orange/terracotta silks. They are extra light 39-56-77-96. Does that sound convincing?

Thanks for all the help guys, it's taken just over an hour to solve the mystery. I new I could rely on you Bass Chatters out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham A Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Mystery solved I was going to add that there is no silk thread at the bridge end of the string, if that helped at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
