Update from my previous post: I have a Loar 700, I had been using martin monels 0.012, which I though worked well. I wanted a bit of a change, put on some D'Addario flatwounds (0.012), really loving it. It really accentuates the difference from the rest of my guitar collection and suits what I like to play on it - jazz, gypsy, rootsy stuff. They'll be staying for some time.
I recently did a short video with my daughter for Play Music on the Porch Day. I just put a zoom H2N on the table in front of us, was surprised at how well the guitar and strings cut through.
