Now, if I could only find a set of nylons for the LaPatrie that had a brighter treble response. Oops, falling off the wagon yet again ...


Hi Rick - that’s two very different sounding string sets there, almost opposite ends of the tonal spectrum to my ears, with sunbeams being warm and soft edged vs EB AB’s being metallic and sharp edged..

Do you use them on different guitars or do you like them both on the same guitar?
