tedmanzie Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Just bought a set of these which I really like. My A-string is not quite as nicely wound as the others, it's almost like I can see the metal underneath - see images attached. It doesn't seem to affect the sound much, if at all, but I guess I could get a replacement A-string if it's not up to standard. Does any one else have a set of these - I wondered if it might just be how the A comes out?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franzbassist Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Probably just part of a different batch. I've had the same with LaBella nylons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atsampson Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 No, that looks like a duff string to me - all four usually match. Here's a well-worn set of mine: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggaebass Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Doesn’t look right to me, I’ve got 2 jazzes with them and they look like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reggaebass Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 They are really nice strings , especially when they’ve been played in for a while, super smooth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was surprised as I played some other brand and they were quite plasticy but these almost feel like cotton covered, and they sound great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 I had a similar problem with a Rotosound Tapewound, sent them a photo, they sent a replacement string AND a new set. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
