| | Registered User | | Join Date: Dec 2004 Location: Los Angeles | | | I love me some Hi Beams but recently tried Sunbeams. If you have the money to buy new strings each few weeks or once a month, Sunbeams are great. They are just nickel variety of Hi Beams.
On the flip side, once broken in, Hi Beams are invincable strings with awesome tone.
