I've seen some discussion of this but had a couple of questions to throw out there.
First, have any of you tried flatwounds for
slide? I'm wondering if there are any benefits or drawbacks.
Also, have any of you tried using lap steel or hawaiian electric string sets. Through juststrings.com com you can get an John Pearse Hawaiian Am6 tuning nickel wound set .16 - .46. I would think these would also work for standard, Drop-D, or even open-G.
They also offer a SIT set - .15 - .38, semi-flt nickel wound for non-pedal lap steel.
Have any of you large gauge users tried these?
