You can get away with a little more on flats. I suspect your tolerance of string noise is significantly lower than most. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grimalkin Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 This is school yard stuff. I won't waste any more time on it. Sorry I made a comment on flat wound strings, it's obviously wounded you deeply. I take it back, all of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrumpymike Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Not sure why this string noise issue is getting so confrontational. Me, I just like to hear what other players have to say 🙂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bridgehouse Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 My strings make a noise. Given how much I've spent on basses and amplifiers I'd be really bloody cross if they didn't 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bridgehouse Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Lol, for the first time ever I wanted to use the correct term for female dogs, in the right context as well, but the swear filter won't let me!!
