I just threw a set of DR HiBeams on my 44-01. First time i ever used DR's of any kind, these are very bright strings I like them, I like them allot just not sure if this is the tone i am looking for, wondering what you Lakland owners use...

If I score a Duck Dunn model, I'm going to put some TI flats on it!

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Nov 2003 Location: NOLA | | | with people going heavier for 34" b strings, i often wonder if going lighter would bring more uniform tone. without a doubt, it would minimize intonation problems. i like lighter guage strings because they seem to give more fundamental and less overtones. it's a balancing act between tone and playability. those are some seriously light strings, tho.. |

On my Joe Osborn I use DR Sunbeams, the Lakie strings had too much tension for that bass, didn't feel right.
