What if Paul had played the 4001 on Ed Sullivan?

Since day one, Pyramids. Sometimes in Pyramid packaging, sometimes Hofner packaging, same strings.
Speaking of, tomorrow our busy season starts, I'm gonna spend the morning changing strings on my working basses.

Thanks guys, that's what I thought. Got 'em on mine, but I'm going to try TI Jazz Flats on my V63 and flat tapes on my 4005. I have been told Hofner brand is Pyramid.

I have the pyramids on my modded 4003 that you saw me play in LA last summer Jerry, and I just put TI Jazz flats on my c64s. I prefer the TI Flats a bunch. The pyramids sound nice though the E string is way dead. The TI Jazz flats are way less tension, but the strings sound strong and the strings are even across all the strings.

Very easy to play and they sound great! I love them!

Yeah, I just this minute (well, minutes ago) put the TI's on the V63 and they are great.

BTW, you coming down and playing IPO this year?

TI flats all the way. Wish the price was bit lower, though, especially for the 5 string set.
