LaBella 760FL's silk color??

They are 'thudders' if you play only in your house unplugged. I agree, they sit in the mix quite nice. I use the 760FS but I can't imagine too much tonal difference going lighter.

Just got a brand new set of 760FLs. They are most definitely on the orange end of the red-orange spectrum! Case solved methinks.

Hey All,

I bought a couple of sets of the LaBella 760FL flats a few months ago and I am happy to report that they are exactly what I have been looking for...a bit more vintage thud and a bit more tension that the TI flats that I had been using prior (also, after breaking TWO "A" strings on two seperate basses both strung with Thomastik flats (JF344's) I chose to move to something other than TI's)...

Anyway, whilst reading old TB threads I stumbled on one about silk colors and everyone is saying the 760FL LaBella's are red...but mine are orangey/red...both sets of packaging were unopened and brand new and labelled as 760FL...do you think I accidentally ended up with the 760FX?? The ONLY reason I wanted to be sure is that I love them and I want to keep using the same ones...maybe they changed the 760FL's to orangey/red(ish) silks...I don't know...just wanted to see if the Talk Bass folks could shed some light on this so I know for future purchases (although, two sets might last me a few years or more
