Well, I just put a set of 6 string T-I's on my BSR6EG (since I recently acquired another 6 Frettless Smith, figured I need one with flats now!)...

Strings fit perfectly, play and sound great!

The .136 fits in the nut just fine (if it were any bigger I don't think it would)...

The T-I's on the B-E-A strings have spaced out windings and can almost feel like ground-wounds. i did notice that the windings near the nut on the B string spaced out a little bit, so I losend the string and pulled it out of the nut and tuned up again this time pushing the string towards the tuner. The windings look more uniform now. It isnt something that would cause a problem, but I did notice the winding got a little caught and needed a little help.

I'll tell ya, I have never been so nervous changing a set of strings in my life! Especially when doing the B string... These things are expensive!
