The La Bella 760THBB Beatle Bass strings are white nylon tape wound strings (50-100) made specifically for the Hofner 500/1 violin bass and similar short scale hollow-body basses. These are the strings that helped define one of the most iconic bass tones in recording history. If you want that deep, warm, thumpy McCartney sound, this is where you start.

White nylon tape winding produces an incredibly warm, woody tone with fast decay and a pillowy low end that sits perfectly in a band mix. The smooth surface feels wonderful and generates zero finger noise. At 50-100, these are light enough to play comfortably on the Hofner's floating bridge while delivering the full, round tone the instrument was designed for. Handcrafted in La Bella's New York facility, the 760THBB is the definitive string choice for Hofner and Beatle bass players worldwide. Get that sound.
