LaBella Thru-Body Flatwound Strings

Sign in to disble this ad
LaBella supposedly makes a "Thru-Body Flatwound String", but I've never seen any mention of them (except in the catalog), and I've never seen them for sale on any websites.

Does anyone know any thing about these? It's strange that they are so unknown.

See the blue box at the bottom left corner of page 18:

Wow, with all the talk about wanting to string flats through the body, you'd think these would get some attention. Has nobody bought a set of these?

I've looked at the catalog countless times and have never noticed it before. Maybe a new feature?

In any case, it's a good thing! I'll email them about a set of FL760s for my Tele bass.

I wonder if there is a specific set number suffix or other nomenclature to use when ordering the through body strings or do you just ask for "them there new through body string thingies"
