Since it did not do well for me at all as a pizz string, but felt good for the minimal arco I do, it might coordinate with what you're looking for in a long E string.

The Bel's have little in common with the sound and tension of the Orig Flex. With the Bel's on the other 3 strings, the Bel E/C works fine. It is not a match in any way that I know of with a Flexocor Orig. set. I have however used Flex 92 Stark E/Cs with the 3 Bels and that works but not in reverse.
