Chromes singles discontinued

Sign in to disble this ad
i was trying to find a custom gauge set of chromes for my PJ. i tune it CGCF.

gauges:
C:132-40.2 lbs
G: 90-42.8 lbs
C: 70-42.5 lbs
F: 50-43.6 lbs

since they don't offer singles anymore and these strings aren't available in sets i was hoping someone could point me towards a decent set of flats that come in singles and have tension info available so i can choose the right gauge for my tuning.

You may want to try Thomastik Infeld... They make a .136 flat wound... Their strings are expensive though...

Since i couldn't find a suitable replacement for the too floppy flatwounds i have ordered some prosteels! i am not officially abandoning flat wounds forever but i am for my down tuning projects!
