Hi, Can anyone tell me what brand of flatwounds come with a light orange colored twine? Thanks.

Hi , I think they maybe Labella 760FX

I’ve had flats since the 80s , and I seem to remember labella using orange silks at one point, but I think they changed to red later, that looks like a cool bass , can I see some more pics 🙂

I was going to say Optima Gold but they have silk at both ends. The other option was DR but they are a much lighter colour.

I’m sure I had a set of 760FX many moons ago & the silks were orange.

Maybe they changed to a universal red now , or I could be ( very possibly ) remembering wrong!

@Marcray measure the gauge if you can , it will help the investigators.

Also +1 cool looking bass 👍

Maybe - I'd have preferred Basschat Orange!!
