njr911 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Just got some new flats from Lakland with purple silks. The Lakland JO flats that are currently on my bass have black silks ? Have they changed ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legion Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Maybe they got muddled up at the factory - seeing as GHS make the lakland flats and GHS flats have purple silks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EssentialTension Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Just put some purple silked GHS flats on my Decade then had to put the sale thread on hold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are definitely the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannybuoy Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Interesting - I've tried all of the above except the GHS. I like the TIs and Pyramids the best so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to have an American Deluxe Precision and I always preferred the TIs on that but on my American Vintage 62 I much prefer La Bella 760FS. The Pyramids work well on the Decade but the Lakland/GHS strings win I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njr911 Posted January 31, 2014 Author Share Posted January 31, 2014 Update - The purple silk Laklands sounded great on the P bass. Growly! They were new so nice a bright (for a flat) Might have to get another set for my Jazz! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
