I was going to order LaBella CB40-BE for my project (solid cedar top 25" dreadnaught into bass ) but its impossible now in case of some reason ( western sanctions because of Ukrainian crisis). I discovered Gold Tone Flatwounds MBLS for Microbass ( made by Labella though) are great.

I like the sound and playability very much. It has Fishman undersaddle pickup and preamp. I use Galli flatwound strings for 23" scale instead of factory installed D’Addario EXPPBB190GS.

Harley Benton Traveler Bass looks just similar in specs to my LANIKAI SPST-EBU. Link Removed

So- as I can see, the pinless bridge is better choice when convering acoustic guitar into bass.

My LANIKAI SPST-EBU works fine with Galli KA-BASS-4FW Chrome Steel Flat Wound Ukulele Bass Strings for 23" scale length

Just to clarify....Are we talking about Gold Tone MicroBass Flatwound Strings ( LaBella MBLS)? I understand that Gold Tone MicroBass Silverbacks Silver-Wrapped Nylon Strings (MBLNS) being roundwound and non-tapered on the tuner side will fit the both 23" and 25" scales. I just bought very nice...

I do not understand how Gold Tone MBLS strings can fit the both 23" and 25" MicroBass models if the "working lenght" of the flatwound string must be different for 23" and 25" scales.
