Sadowsky Flats B Taper Close Up Pic

Could someone take a pic of the Sadowsky tapered flats B string? I'm curious as to how the flat part tapers off to roundwound.

That's perfect Steve. Thanks.

So the Sadowsky is a true flat, 3 layers of flat winding. Can you tell how the largest winding flows into the middle winding?

What, you trying to roll your own?

It appears...that the outer winding is continuous end to end and whatever is going on is underneath and not visible.

There may very well be a round wrap wire.

Nice string whatever the recipe IMO.

PM me an email addy and I'll send you the hi res pic if that'll help.
