I mainly got these strings because I am a huge fan of Motown sound and more specifically James Jamerson. I installed these on a Squire Mustang classic series and immediately the bass sound changed to the better.
I know ideally you need a Fender Precision bass to get that Motown sound right with Labella strings, however even on my Squire Mustang they sound great! Awesome smooth feel, buttery sound, I can recommend Labella and will definitely buy them again.

Classic sound, high tension.
TrEr 03.10.2019
These strings have the classic 50s/early 60s sound. More specifically they have the sound of American vintage soul music. They do start out as quite metallic and bright sounding though, and NOT in a nice way. They take quite a while to break in but once they've settled they sound fat and thumpy and last for decades.
They are high tension, VERY stiff and not suitable for anything that requires a bright tone or lots of sustain.
Highly recommended if you're looking for a fat, warm, thumpy Motown/Stax-style sound.
Stay away if you want a modern,crisp sound with lots of sustain. They're classics but not very good allrounders.

Gorgeous looking, smooth as satin, high quality flatwounds with old school warm tone.
I can't say anything bad about these strings.

Massive sound!

These strings sound AMAZING on my Squier Bronco Bass. Instant vintage rubbery-boxy sound and massive too! I have never played flatwounds before and it is a shock for me :)
