Warm Tone with Maximum Playing Comfort
Your fingers will absolutely love La Bella's Rx Nickel bass strings. These roundwound bass strings deliver the classic tonal warmth and nuanced mids you'd expect from nickel-plated steel, but it's the way they feel that sets these unique strings apart. The construction process behind Rx Nickel strings offers the same standard gauges as other La Bella sets, but with overall lower tension. Combined with their added flexibility, this lighter tension lets you play with a softer touch, allowing you to play faster and longer without wearing out your fingers.
Centuries of expertise in each set of La Bella stringsLa Bella strings are the top choice for musicians ranging from world-famous artists such as Willie Nelson, Bryan Adams, and Ron Carter to everyday players like many of us here at Sweetwater. Their heritage reaches back to the Mari family of Salle, Italy, in the seventeenth century, and they became famous throughout Europe, even supplying violin strings to Amati and Stradivari. In the early twentieth century, brothers Emilio and Olinto Mari moved the string operation to New York, founding the modern La Bella company. Today, La Bella strings are considered among the finest in the world, and we think you'll agree when you hear what they can do for your favorite instrument.
