man and i do like them

i bought jazz guage chromes (they didnt have lighter guages at samash enless iw anted to pay more)

i like the feel its not as straining on my fingers and the sound is awsome too

i stringed em up on my sg and they were awsome and really dark sounding which is good cause my sg is my metal guitar.
and then being bored i wondered how it would sound if i wrapped em around the tailpiece like zack wylde does and :saeek: wow!
its the darkest thing ive ever heard come out of my sg
..i think one of the reasons is cause i had to raise the bridge up and the pickups are too low taking away the brightness....
but i love the sound
so ill keep it like it ;)

sorry for the sorta meaningless post but i needed to release the joy ive gotten outta my string quest today
lol.
 
Re: Tried Out Ribbon Wound Strings Today..

I remember looking for these a while back, and couldn't seem to locate any... where'd you get em?
 
Re: Tried Out Ribbon Wound Strings Today..

Sam Ash
their called daddario chromes
i got em for like 8 bucks
they also had gibson flatwounds but they were like 13 bucks (im too cheap for that)
 
Re: Tried Out Ribbon Wound Strings Today..

Yea i uses flatwounds exclusively and absolutly love them. They only come in higher guages but are amazing to my ears. Very warm, and not a present as round wounds, well certainly tame a bright guitar or make a guitar into an unholy devil or a guit.

I do like those flatwounds, but the only ones I found over here where about $30AU a set... I'm too cheap for that..

just thinking... Flatwound, Invader,...
