Pinball Posted December 29, 2018 Posted December 29, 2018 Hi, can anyone tell me what strings these are as I like them a lot? They are on a Sigma acoustic bass and are flats with red silk at both ends Quote
HazBeen Posted December 30, 2018 Posted December 30, 2018 Amazingly difficult to tell from silk colour alone, I think they might be LaBella Deep Talking Flats but would be very hesitant to put money on that claim. Quote
BreadBin Posted December 30, 2018 Posted December 30, 2018 What colour are the ball ends? Rotosound are red, white and blue. Quote

The silk is "glossy" and an intense red colour. I'm pretty sure that they aren't Rotosound Jazz 77's, as used them in the past and these feel different. Also the 77's have a distinctive silver colour that these are lacking. Following Silvia's suggestion theses look right. 1 Quote
BreadBin Posted December 30, 2018 Posted December 30, 2018 I've been meaning to try the TI - they're not cheap though! Quote

Yes that's the trouble, if I bought 4 sets of different strings to try that would be more than the bass cost me 😂 I uses to use 77's in my rock band, then switched to Status half rounds, which I loved but they stopped making them so I switched to Elixir rounds. I have labella flats on my fretless, which I'm happy with but I do like these on this particular bass. They record really nice too. Quote
BreadBin Posted December 30, 2018 Posted December 30, 2018 To be fair I've not heard many bad reviews 👍 Quote
