We’ve designed a set of
acoustic bass strings
that’s so extraordinary,
Ron Carter could play
modern jazz or Mozart.
The problem with acoustic bass strings was that one set
couldn’t satisfy the wide range of music played on it. So we
asked the top acoustic artists to help us design a set of strings
so versatile, it could play everything from Mozart to a Ron
Carter original.
Now we proudly announce our new acoustic bass string
with a hexagon core which is probably the finest set in the
world. That’s why Downbeat Reader Poll’s number one bass
player prefers La Bella’s perfectly balanced strings. You can
hear Ron Carter play these strings on his new hit album, Ron
Carter Quartet—"Piccolo”—Milestone M55004. They come in
two types: flat metal wound and nylon tape wound; and avail-
able from piccolo bass to full size bass. No matter what style
you play, our new acoustic bass strings is right for your music.
La Bella. The most versatile
acoustic bass strings in music.
