Damn LaBella Jamersons

Sign in to disble this ad
So I've used LaBellas on and off for the last 8 years, usually the JJ signature set, but I stopped using them because their QC and CS suck in my opinion and experience.

Maybe about a year ago I got my last set of LaBellas. I strung them up on my faithful old P-bass once again. I'm convinced that this bass has the world's strongest neck. No matter what kind of strings I put on it, I've yet to adjust the truss. The last three string changes were TIs, heavy Roto Jazz Flats, and now the JJs.

Pretty much I just used the bass to for a lot of slower stuff (Motown, Reggae, Country, Folk, Blues, etc) but I just played two shows in a row with a country punk rock band. Lots of fast playing, all fingerstyle. I have a hard attack (just to cut through)

Please educate me, what is QC and CS? I'm using some XL flats on my Fender Jazz and I've gotten nothing but good.

QC = Quality Control
CS = Customer Service

I guess it posted twice by accident. My browser froze when I posting the thread originally.
