Name that string!

[mike f]

I need help identifying a set of strings;
[list]
[*]Round wound
[*]Black silks
[*]Exposed core at the bridge
[/list]

Its an old set I've got that I love the sound of and would like to buy a new set of; its just that I can't for the life of me remember who made them.

Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Might be La Bella supersteps if they have exposed cores.
If it's a REALLY old set they might be Superwounds, if that's the case you're out of luck beause they don't make them anymore.

Thanks for the information, Rhys.

I think they may be Superwounds. And if they are its a shame they don't make them anymore cause they still sound good and they've been played a lot.

Any experience with the Supersteps?

[RhysP]

Yes, they're excellent strings.
The only downside is that they don't make an ultralight version like Superwound used to do.

String busters have got some Supersteps on offer at the moment in a couple of different guages - if you look at the list on the website they are marked as "Overstocked" and are about £7.00 a set cheaper than normal.
