  1. Problem is that you need medium scale and they need to have a thin enough leader to go through the tiny tuner post holes so that rules out 90% of flats straight away.

     

    You’re pretty much restricted to the Hofner-specific varieties from the like of Thomastik or LaBella or Pyramid.

     

    Of these, Thomastik are the only ones which don’t feature the “dead” E string sound so they get my vote.

     

    If price is an issue then you’re probably going to be best with Hofner Contemporary flats.  I’ve not tried them but they’re the flats version of what your new HCT is supplied with.

     

    Have fun!
