Shawn Brock -> White trebles? (Apr. 30 2012 23:48:46)

Okay... To go along with the other Paco threads... Anyone ever tried either the Luthier white trebles, or the Aquila white trebles? I'm thinking of ordering both to try out. I would also be interested in comments about the bass strings from each company. It looks like Luthier just sells these white trebles alone, not a part of any of their other sets. I'm always interested in trying new strings, though most times its a bust... Like 2 weeks ago when I put a set of the Savarez carbons on. I gave them almost a day before taking them off and going back to my trusted Daddario J46C... I have sure wasted a few bucks on strings which I just can't stand... I don't know when I'll finely get it into my head that the Savarez carbons just don't work for my playing and ear. Every year I buy a set and put them on just to find out that yes its still true, I don't like them... I'm all for brighter trebles, but my playing style just don't make them sound musical... According to Strings By Mail, the Aquila white trebles are supposed to be somewhat bright like carbons, but who knows... Guess its worth $11 to find out. As for Luthier, I don't know much about them. I know I tried a set from them a few years ago, but can't remember if I liked them or not. I know I haven't tried the white trebles though. I'm guessing that the Luthier white trebles is what Paco uses, being that he has had a long relationship with them.
