New La Bella strings. WEIRD sound?

Sign in to disble this ad
Alright, so I put La Bellas on my fretless. I use rounds, and these have the exposed core.

Anyway, I string it up, intonated it and everything, and I'm getting this WEIRD sound. It's like when I play, I get a bunch of overtones?

Any ideas what's causing this??

Good luck, to some of us they haven't been that helpful. It appears they work for a very small minority of players...

...and for the price, you'd think they'd practically make toast for you... Unfortunately not...
