For first Flats: LaBella LT vs Deep Talkin'

[Gianni "Orlandez" Orlati]

I just reinstalled a set of 960FL on a bass and a set of LTF on another bass (2 Ps BTW) - my personal opinion is that I don’t quite feel the LTF as being really lower in tension when compared to the DTBF 960FL; j mean, they may exert a lesser tension onto the neck (not that much however I believe but this is just a feeling based on his much it took to me to get a nice action in both cases) but they certainly do not feel more flexible.
Based on that, all in all, I prefer the DTBF although both are very nice sets.
Now waiting for my second Fender PV ‘60 pickup to try with the LTF this time

Saves the need for a polish cloth?

Saves the need for a polish cloth?

Or a string mute

There was a time when all we had was LaBellas and GHS. I’m partial to Ernie Ball Slinky Cobalt Flatwounds. Thomastick Jazz Flats are great but ridiculously expensive.

Yes but theyll last for at least a decade.
