I'm looking for a set of flatwound strings for my new Ibanez 6-string SR (34" scale). I don't think I can handle muting and reducing string noise with these extra strings, so flats should help with one of those issues.
My preferred flats are Fender 9050L and EB Cobalts, though the last set of EBs had a G string that sounded a little off. But in any case, neither of these are available for a 6 string.
My only experience with La Bella is a recent set of Bass VI flats I put on my Squier VI. I'm really not happy with that set because the timbre of the upper 3 strings is much different from the lower ones. I had to add a mute to the upper strings to improve uniformity.
Would I run into this with a set of La Bella Deep Talkin' Flats for standard scale bass? And will these be similar to the Fender 9050Ls?
The other option I see out there is a 6-string set from SIT. I have never tried SIT strings though, but see positive reviews.
SIT also has a set of half-rounds but I read here that they are sticky (I'm guessing similar to the D'Addario half-rounds which I didn't like due to sticky feel).
