Favorite "B" String?

Sign in to disble this ad
Just thought I'd ask everyone what their favorite 5 string set's were, paying particular attention to the "B" string. Currently, my favorites are LaBella Super Steps and Hard Rockin Steel. The B's are "notey" with lots of fundamental, and good intonation from top to bottom.

I love the B in the Lo Rider 5's, the clarity and tension are right on.
