Product Description
La Bella Has Over 400 Years of String Making Experience
The tradition of string making dates back to the 1640s in Salle, Italy, where the Mari family supplied gut strings to the famous violin builders of Cremona. In 1913, brothers Olinto & Emilio Mari arrived in New York bringing their family craft to the States. Over the years, the brothers shaped the landscape of the string industry with their innovative designs. Every set is manufactured using a perfect combination of traditional methods and latest technologies to produce a superior string.
413P Professional Studio
A unique design, the 413P Studio set has clear high-density nylon trebles and golden alloy (80/20 brass) wound basses. The first noise-free classical guitar strings, this set has precision polished basses. The painstaking process of polishing wound strings smoothens the surface of the wound string using a stone-grinding method. This helps in eliminating the harsh squeak when shifting positions or playing a glissando.
- Clear nylon trebles produced greater aural transparency and sound projection
- Polished Golden Alloy (80/20 Brass) wound basses produce exceptional memory for pitch and consistent sound production
- Medium Tension
- String Gauges: Clear Nylon Trebles: .029 .033 .041; Polished Golden Alloy (80/20 bass) Wound Basses: .030 .033 .042
- Made in the USA with American Wire

The tradition of string making for the Mari family was first recorded in Salle, Italy in the 1640s. The “House of Mari” supplied gut strings to legendary violin makers Amati, Cremona & Stradivari.

Customers are mixed about the sound quality of the musical instrument strings. Some mention that the trebles have a nice sound, but have less sustain than comparable strings.

However, others say that the other strings sound dull and spongy, the basses are very dull, and the polished strings squeak and stick to thumb.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I personally like the entire set, but I know of guitarists who would only use the basses ( they're the ones that tend to squeak) and throw away the trebles. I've also known folks who would only use these strings for recording ( i.e. they'd string the guitar with these, record for a day or two, and restring the guitar with their normal, daily strings).
There are professionals, semi-professionals, and amateurs who will champion their personal favorite in the realm of strings. You have to decide what you want to use. If the material feels good to the fingers, if the sound resonates with you, and if your wallet isn't making more noise than your frets, then use whatever you like.
These strings, as I said, do what they're intended to do and do it very well. However, don't assume that all fret noise will mystically disappear. These minimize that noise, but there's no way to eliminate it with strings alone - pick up your fingers :))
Another caveat: if you like fret noise - if it's part of your playing technique and persona - then stay away from these! They'll clean the sound up too much for you. Yeah. I know these are "Classical" guitar strings, but I've known folk guitarists who use classical strings.and if I wanted a folksy sound full of fret noise or if I wanted a scratchy, earthy, Blues sound, I wouldn't use these.
I do use these for recording, but for daily use, I find the trebles to be clear and the basses full and sustaining, so why change them out for something more mainstream?
Summary: they reduce fret noise and they sound nice for daily playing. They're comfortable to the fingers. If you're looking to record or if you'd just like to try something new, give these a shot.

Die Hybridgitarren werden mit Nylon-Saiten (außer vielleicht zu Übungszwecken) nur verstärkt gespielt, da thin-line Korpus mit wenig Resonanz. Also geht alles über Tonabnehmer/Mikro! Das verstärkte fast unvermeidliche Reiben und Schleifen der Basssaiten stört mich dabei!
Auch bei guter Spieltechnik ist das in diesem Setting unvermeidbar…
Die Lösung: La Bella 413 P !
- Dieser Saitensatz beendet aufgrund der geschliffenen und glatten Basssaiten das oben beschriebene Problem sehr gut!
(Bei Fretlessgitarren ist das Gleiten und Schleifen schon durch das Griffbrett ohne Bünde noch mehr gegeben! - Auch hier sind diese speziellen Saiten sehr gut geeignet und schonen das Griffbrett noch dazu, da sie keine „Rillen“ haben, die mit der Zeit Spuren hinterlassen könnten.).
- Der Ton dieser Saiten ist etwas dumpfer als bei Standard-Saiten, stört mich aber gar nicht und außerdem kann ich das am Tonabnehmer oder/und Verstärker regulieren.
- Die Haptik ist sehr schmeicheld fast samtartig!
- Die Saiten halten lange, ich spiele täglich. Bin Hobbymusiker. 3 Monate halten sie schon problemlos auf 3 verschiedenen Gitarren.
Ich verwende diese Saiten sehr zufrieden weiterhin für (klassische) Fretless-Gitarre und meine beiden Hybridgitarren! Da sind sie „der neue Standard“.
Für meine regulären Klassik- bzw. Flamenco-Gitarren verwende ich aber andere Saiten. (Da stellt sich das Problem mit dem verstärkten Schleifen und Reiben ja auch nicht!)
Ces cordes sont nettement moins chères que toutes les autres cordes avec basses polies.
