LaBella 760fm b 5 string set?

[Jaume2]

Thinking of trying these on my rebop. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Depends on the tension you would like.

Some find it pretty tight tuned standard... Some find this set perfect tuned down a half step...

If too tight you can go down to the 45-105-128t set which is the 760FS-B

The odd thing about the La Bella flatwound 5-string sets is, despite the wide range of gauge selections from "FX" all the way up to the "1954 Originals", the only B-string available is .128. I would guess it would balance better with one of the lighter sets.

They feel the .128t speaks out best.

Thanks y'all. I'm going to give them a try.
