Labellas seem popular around here at TB. I just put a set on a bealtle clone. They are starting to break in quite nicely. Plenty of thump and boom.

+1 on the LaBellas

If you want a real round and thumpy tone the labellas are great on those basses. I would love to hear the Sadowsky flats on that bass myself, a bit more growly than the LaBellas, but with a similar voice.

A friend has one with Chromes on it that I've played a few times, they sounded great as well.

I think Pyramid flats would be superb as well, based on the way I've heard them on other hollowbodies.
