Fellow Geddy owners

I'm going to try flats for my Geddy. Right now I'm thinking TI Flats or D'addario Chromes. I'm a little concerned about changing to Flats with higher tension on this neck. The TI's appear to be very low tension, almost too low. Any suggestions on these and the proper gauges. I'd prefer to get a set where I would not have to adjust anything-- in particular the truss rod which is a PITA to adjust.--THanks Ken

Thanks- I am leaning toward the Cromes -although I believe I like the sound of the TI flats a bit better- just not their tension and playability. Good to hear that no adjustments are needed.--K
