Well I’ve decided to not do this now. I have a Sandberg Lionel Superlight on way but I made that decision in April last year so not sure if that means I can still be in, as final payment will - hopefully - be this year.
It’s funny but although I love that tort guard on that Jazz on my own US one I for some reason kept the white guard on it, even tho I had intended to tort it.
I’m pretty much the same, rarely use the G, preferring the thicker sounding notes of the A & D strings. On some songs this isn’t practical but whenever possible avoid the G.
They do feel thinner than my US Precision, really quite comfortable to play. Whereabouts in the country are you, I’m sure if anyone on here who is local to you has one they’d let you have a try.
