bassace97 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Liking it so far. Really nice warm round sound. Considering putting flats on it. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarky Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 The LaBella Mustang set (760FLMUS) will do the job nicely. £40 at BassDirect but will last years and sound wonderful 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassbiscuits Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Great basses. I have the exact same one though I swapped the pickguard for a white one purely for cosmetic / vanity reasons! Yes - the La Bella mustang set are brilliant - not thuddy and dead at all - surprisingly musical, smooth and warm on mine. I’m well jealous you’ve got a hard case that fits yours tho! What is it?

Hadnt considered white, bet that looks stunning! This one is a 2008 Made in Japan, and from what I can see these all came with a black Fender hardcase. A fellow basschatter actually offered me a set of Labella Mustang strings, can't wait for them to arrive. I'm considering swapping the stock pickup for a Nordstrand NM4, DO you have any experience with these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassbiscuits Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Ah cool. Mine is a 2013 MIJ model and didn’t come with a case (or had been lost along the way before I got it). Haven’t tried the Nordstrands. I did think about swapping the pickups but I’ve gigged it solid for the last year and a half and never felt the need to change the sound as it’s perfectly good. I wanted a red tort or pearl white plate but they were both rare and/or expensive so I went with a white one that cost about a tenner instead. Works for me!
