    i just put on a set of flat tops (d'addario ft74) and they are the best sounding strings ive tried to date. the wound A string is amazing! it evens out the whole insturment, and more tone. this is just day 1, so my opinion could change after a bit... we'll see.
    does any one use these strings on regular basis?
    i may switch to these, i like them so much right now.

    two things... one i appologize for placeing this in the wrong forum...
    secondly, these strings seem to not bend or move so much, in otherwords they feel like when you press down they stay where they touch the fret, dont slide across frets.
    kinda nice, but wierd to get used to a little.

    I liked them for awhile, bought a few sets and then grew cool.
