etta -> Luthier 30 bass strings (Dec. 14 2013 12:49:31) Does anyone have the tension figures on the Luthier 30 H.T. strings? They seem to have more tension than the Savarez Corum H.T. set. Thanks

Anders Eliasson -> RE: Luthier 30 bass strings (Dec. 14 2013 15:05:57) I´m pretty sure they are lower tension than the Sav. Corum basses. The corum basses migh be more flexible and elastic. Luthier30 says medium high tension and i dont dont find them to be very hard. Just a tad tighter than Daddario J45. My observations are "only" based on experience and not on fancy oficial tension figures. [8D]

etta -> RE: Luthier 30 bass strings (Dec. 14 2013 15:12:00) Thanks Anders; I assumed they had less tension than the Corum H.T.s but they do seem stiffer with a little less definition than the easier playing, more flexible Corums. Still, they have lots of volume and punch.

orsonw -> RE: Luthier 30 bass strings (Dec. 14 2013 15:58:08) According to published tension measurements Savarez corum HT are one of the highest tension strings, for example higher than d'addario extra hard. This concurs with my experience. I don't think Luthier publish tension measurements? But I also find Luthier 30 medium tension, a lttle bit higher than D'addario EJ45. I needed to get Luthier 50 or 60 to achieve a similar feel to HT Corum.
