The La Bella OSF-5 Olinto Signature Flats are a 5-string flatwound bass set (47-125) with custom gauges developed by bassist Olinto. The gauge selection focuses on balanced tension across all five strings, so the low B doesn't feel overly stiff while the G string maintains enough resistance for clean articulation. It's a thoughtful approach to flatwound gauge design that addresses common complaints about uneven tension in standard sets.

Stainless steel flatwound construction delivers warm, smooth, controlled tone with the polished surface and minimal finger noise that define the flatwound playing experience. The Olinto gauges give this set a slightly different feel and voice from La Bella's standard Deep Talkin' Bass line, offering an alternative that some players find more balanced and musical. Handcrafted in New York, these signature flats are for 5-string players who appreciate the fine details of string design.
