The La Bella Deep Talkin' Bass Gold Flats bring a unique golden tone to your bass guitar. Made with La Bella's proprietary golden alloy ribbon wire wrapped around a steel core, these flatwound strings have a warm, vintage sound with enhanced midrange unlike traditional stainless steel flats. The Gold Flats' smooth, polished wrap is comfortable on your fingers for effortless playing. While designed to evoke a classic vibe, their cutting tone and added punch blend nicely with modern basses.

Unique Golden Alloy Wrap Provides Vintage Tone

The golden alloy used for the exterior wrap gives the Gold Flats their signature vintage sound. The gilded flatwound wrap brings out the midrange frequencies, adding richness and body to each note. The result is a warm, smooth tone reminiscent of flatwounds from decades past, with an unmistakable golden shimmer. The hand-polished strings have an incredibly smooth feel, gliding over the fingerboard for comfortable playing. The Gold Flats' unique wrap material stands out both visually and sonically.

Standard Long Scale Fits Most Basses

The La Bella Gold Flats come in a standard long scale set, with string lengths from 36.75" to 38". This makes them compatible with the scale lengths of most standard electric bass guitars. The six string gages range from .029 to .128, providing balanced tension in a standard tuning. With the long scale length and optimized gages, the Gold Flats will feel right at home on your favorite bass guitar.

Handmade in the USA Using Premium Materials

Constructed by skilled luthiers in the USA, the Gold Flats are built to last. They feature a steel hex core wire, chosen for its durability and ability to hold tune. The golden alloy ribbon wrap is applied carefully by hand. La Bella's meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail is reflected in the quality of these American-made bass strings. The Gold Flats are designed to deliver the warm, vintage tone players love with modern reliability.

Maintains Brightness with Special Cleaning

While the Gold Flats' unique wrap may lose some luster over time, their tone stays true. The strings can be cleaned with alcohol to restore their original golden shimmer. Gently rubbing them with a brass polish will return the Gold Flats to their shiny glory. With occasional cleaning, the brilliant gold finish will continue complementing your bass guitar's look. The great tone and smooth feel remain consistent over the life of the strings.
