I play flats on several of my guitars (all electric) and tried flats once on one of my acoustics. I like flats for the acoustic, but it was a bit of a loss in overall volume. They were flats for an electric.

I thought about flats for slide, but decided I kinda like the zippy, zinginess of roundwounds. I like that little bit of resistance on the slide as well. I think having the ridges would assist in helping to making a little vibrato sustain... But, that's just a theory based on nothing! LOL
