La Bella Super Polished 5-String Bass String Set (47-125)

The La Bella Super Polished bass strings have the punch of stainless steel but the smooth, buttery feel of flats. La Bella began the process by taking their round-wound stainless steel strings (designed with their flexible Olinto hex cores & gauges) and placing them on their factory-designed polishers, smoothing down the ridges commonly associated with round-wound strings. This polishing process far exceeds the feel of conventional and abrasive feeling "half rounds" or "ground wound" strings. The result is a unique tone that simmers between flats and rounds! The feel...buttery smooth!
