I tried flats on my Gretsch recently, and am really digging it. Definitley wanna try 'em on other guitars of mine.
Alex, i've been playing bowed guitar a lot lately (Think Sigur Ros, not Jimmy Page) and have found that you're right, a box will work best with flats. With rounds, i'm getting way too much unwanted high-pitched squeaking. |

Hey Glen, thanks for the headsup on the TI 12s, I will have to try a set. Do you know who carries them.
BTW, this is somewhat off the subject but has anyone ever tried mixing flat and roundwounds on a 12-string? I have been wondering if the E&A octave strings might ring (sustain) better if they were roundwounds opposed to the falt on Pryamids. I am going to try it. I like the flats on the standard ones for their specific sound but I would like to have the E,A,D sets ring more like the the other three if possible. Any thoughts? |
