The La Bella S500L double ball-end bass strings are a four-string flatwound set in light 43-104 gauge, designed for Steinberger and other headless basses. Flatwound strings on a headless bass deliver a unique combination of modern instrument design with vintage-flavored tone. The smooth surface and warm, focused sound give you that classic thump without any finger squeak.

Light gauge keeps the tension manageable for comfortable playing, and the flatwound construction rewards a lighter touch with a clean, articulate response. These strings work beautifully for jazz, funk, R&B, and any style where a smooth, defined bass tone is the goal. Finding quality flatwound strings in double ball-end format is a challenge, and La Bella's S500L set fills that gap with the same craftsmanship they bring to their legendary standard-bass flatwounds. A must-have for headless bass players who want flatwound feel and tone.
