Description

The La Bella Olinto bass is an exceptional instrument based on the P-Bass shape with a whole bunch of finessing and enhancements. Even the pickups are wound in-house to a specific ‘scatter wound’ technique to reproduce the exact, authentic sound of the 60s.

Alike the pickups the Olinto bass also uses calibrated strings wound by La Bella. These Olinto bass strings are flat wound to a slightly heavier/thicker gauge all while keeping a thinner core. This composition gives the strings brightness and articulation while keeping the smooth finish and thick, deep tone of flat wound strings.

These are a true modern representation of flat wound strings.

These are long scale strings with a ball-to-silk length of 37″. These are not suitable for through-body stringing.
