Patience... Seriously, not a whole lot of TBers check the strings forum as the others, and also I doubt a lot of people have used the strings.

I haven't yet.

Sorry man, but I'm not hip to those strings. Can't comment.
I do know they are on like every major music store's shelf.

GFW, I posted a thread a while back on these strings and it devolved into somethin entirely different...

Glad to hear you're digging them. Can you post a detailed review on the Alchemy? Sound, feel, tension, compare/contrast with other strings you've used? I'd definitely appreciate it.

Couldn't find anything?

What exactly are you looking for?

Alchemy Strings Randy Jackson 06-16-07

Randy Jackson Alchemy Strings 06-03-07... no replies but a decent review from a first use.

Randy Jackson Alchemy 02-13-07... 57 replies (this would be the thread steamthief mentioned, it really went down hill... it was ka-razy).


Get some, try them, come back with a review.

How about a review/ comparison since there's not as much info on it, might help us others.

I just got a set of these, but haven't replaced my flats with them yet. Since I just left a reggae band and joined a 'pop' band I thought I'd switch, but my flats are sounding very nice and punchy with the new band.

I may get impulsive and slap 'em on anyway, but a favorable review might goad me a little closer to the edge!
