The La Bella Black Nylon Tape Wound bass strings feature an extremely smooth outer surface made of black nylon, which creates a warm, deep, vintage sound with great sustain. Ideal for fretless bass, these strings also perform very well on acoustic basses and are the preference of many players of fretted electric bass.
