soulstar89 Posted 14 minutes ago Posted 14 minutes ago I was gifted these copper nylon strings from a good friend @HowieD72. I’m really surprised by the tone. I put them on my 78 mij Yamaha pulser p bass. Maple fretboard and Asian ash body. When you dig in it’s feels like it has a compression effect of the highs. Tames it in a good way. When playing chords they have great sustain and tone, very sweet sounding. They are on loose side (a tad tighter than it flats). This put me off at first. I contacted La Bella and they suggested you should always start off with the regular tensions. Another thing I noticed is the output is lower than my nickels or flats. No problem though I just increase the volume on amp. I am so impressed with its feel under my fingers, so smooth and tone that I’m going to purchase the regular tension. sound so articulate and percussive playing fingerstyle. Quote
