BigRedX Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Scale length? If they are short scale they could be Rotosounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hellzero Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Rotosound have brass balls and straight silk following the wrapping especially on ball end and are more blue than turquoise : Alembic have chrome balls and more thick silk and really turquoise : So definitely Alembic CX-3 as shown on the two above photos taken right now with a correct colour balance. These are nickel strings with pressure wound technology that makes them feel softer to the touch and pliant as you said @MoJo. They also have a tendency to rust very quickly without affecting the tone, which is quite balanced : really good strings. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
