Low tension strings.

Hey guys.

So i am a light gauge user. For the past 3 years i have been using status Hex core 30-110 stainless steel sets. I feel that i am losing out on tone somewhat due to the low gauge.

I recieved a MM Stingray that was strung with La Bella Deep Talkin 760FS flats (45-130), they were the absoloute dogs danglys, felt so smooth, and they had great great low tension. I need a set of stainless steel roundwounds that are bright and zingy, but with ultra low tension which are either 40-125 or 45-130. Wouldnt mind a smooth feeling on em either! But must have the roundwound sound!

Any ideas?

Rob :)

Taking into account that obviously, the higher the gauge the higher the tension, i ordered some Status 40-125 SS Roundcores. Not as high of a gauge that i was after, but still a 1/4 thicker then my current usual sets.

if it doesant work out, i'll probably go for the DR's or some Pressure wounds.

Cheers!

Any news on the SS roundcores yet - I'm fairly interested in these - I too want to find something low-tension but fairly bright and not too hard on fingers?
