Just had a set delivered today which I abesent mindidly put on. Ball end colours all correct, started tuning up, got to the G string, thinking wow this is taking a lot of effort to get up to pitch. Not to worry, must be a flatwound thing, start playing, bloody hell that G is really stiff.
On closer inspection I've got two D's masquerading as a D and a G, so first venture into flatwound world has not gone well!
I'm waiting on a response from the retailer but in the meantime does anyone know where I can get single Fender flatwounds from ?
