Hi,

I'm a 34 year old software developer from Germany and found this forum searching for information on DR Hi Beam Flats. Thanks to the internet I found answers to my quiestions here.

So - maybe in the future I will visit this forum more often, especially when the nice people at the swiss (german language) forum bassic.ch can't help. Maybe that's a good way of using my knowledge of the english language, too.

kind regards,
Tilo

Welcome Tilo!

I'm 3/4 German, does that make us friends? haha.

@meev992: If you can afford that equipment - that's right ;-) But globalisation should enable you to get it even on the other side of the atlantic. I'm waiting for DR flatwound strings from NY, that the official distributor in germany (Warwick) doen't want to sell for whatever reason ... And Ernie Ball flatwounds are much cheaper when I buy them directly in America, even with toll and shipping costs. Maybe you can order at a german internet shop, too?

@Valerus: Well, we could be friends if we want to - even if you were 3/4 american, japanese, martian or whatever ;-)
