Default new strings

Hello all,

I took Tim Bishop's advice and ordered a set of Compressors with a Taper "B" from Ken and they went on right away. The "B" saddle needed just a hint of readjustment to compensate for the taper and the intonatation is right in the ballpark, too.

The playability of these strings fits my style very well. As I mentioned before, I play with a light touch and the lighter gauge is like butter under my fingers!

I expected the feel to be smoother; they seem closer to rounds than flats but, after a few sessions, this is not a concern.

My only regret is not ordering two sets at the same time to save a little on the shipping cost.

Anyone else here use these?

Regards, Kirk
