What color silk on Labella DTB 760FM flats?

billoetjen · #1 07-09-2009, 09:27 PM

Hi, I have a set of strings that've been laying around for a couple of years and I can't quite remember the brand/specs/details on these. I suspect that they are the Medium flats. The reason I ask is that I just put them on my string-through body Warmoth fretless. I like the way they sound, but mostly, I wanted to try DTB 760FS on this bass. If the set I just put on are the Mediums instead of the Standards, they handle the string-through just fine.

I'd appreciate any help here.
Thanks,

Bill

I've got 760FMB (5 string set of Mediums) on one of my basses... they have black silks.

I've got a 5-string set of the 760FS (.045-.128) and they are black.

FMs should have blue silk. FLs have red and FS have black.

mine are definitely FMB and definitely black silk wrapped... maybe the 5 string sets are different than the 4s

Could be, although the FL 5-string set I have also has red silk like the 4-string sets.
