It's probably getting pretty close to time for him to get out. Everyone better start keeping your Washburns under lock and key.
I really don't like the larger gauges Strum, but this was the smallest they had. I'm going to try ordering some extra light flat wounds to see what I think. I'll probably have to plug her in a little more often, but my fingers will thank me.
Street, I'm not ready to give an opinion on these yet, but I love flat wounds in general. They cut down on the nasty finger noise that comes from dragging your fingers across the strings when you change chords, but more than that, I think they have a deeper, mellower sound. A little stronger on the bass perhaps. If you want to try something in the middle, the D'addario flat tops are good start. They're not flat wound exactly, but they're polished down after they're wound, and they sound very similar to flat wounds.
