Pow_22 Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 I recently made a switch from my favourite Elites flatwounds to Fender as i was seeking a little more growl and sustain. However, they have either stopped being made or are very difficult to find in the old gauges. I was a big fan of their 9050CL set in 'standard' 105-45 gauge but couldnt find them anywhere. Eventually i setteled on a 9050ml 100-50 gauge which seem really good. Now i cant find these in stock anywhere either! I know some think the d'addario chromes are close but ive never got on with them - too twangy and not enough thump for me even after many hours playing. Are fenders now on their way out and do i need to find something similarly growly, good sustain and a decent E string? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
