Exitao -> Yet another string thread... (Jan. 20 2009 17:33:44)

I've actually compiled a list of strings and combinations that people have said they like, here and at F-T.com, so fear not, I'm not goign to be asking about that. I've always used d'Addario strings, and the other day I just restrung with my first set of non-d'addarios. The trebles I'm using are Labella 820b. I'm not sure if I like them. First, they were a pain to string. They're much stretchier (estrechy, je), than I'm used to, and they were harder to make as neat I like. They also need more time to stretch out, they detune real fast. While taught and in tune, they don't feel too bad, but the d'addario's have a harder (resiny?) feel. These feel more like... plastic. They sound fine, and I love the idea of cool colours, but can anyone explain to me about what trebles are made of and what not? Next time I get strings, I may want to get something that feels closer to what the d'addarios felt like (BTW, they were ej45s or ej46s...).
