*TRADED* FT: D'Addario Zyex Medium Gauge Set

**Jeremy Allen** · #1 01-05-2011, 11:35 AM

Used for about three weeks, in great condition. These are excellent strings for almost any application, about the same tension as Spiro Mittels and very easy to bow and pluck. (There is nothing, however, remotely gut-like about them, in spite of the advertising copy.)

I'm interested in finding EP regular D and G; Olivs or Eudoxas A/D/G; possibly some plain guts; or anything else strange and not steel-core.

Hi, I'm interested, but you failed to mention a price, or did I miss it?

**Jeremy Allen** · #3 01-06-2011, 07:52 PM

I didn't post them for sale, just for trade. So, no price. I get D'Addario strings for free, and I don't really feel comfortable re-selling them. Although I suppose that using them for barter is the same thing...

So, if you want them...trade me something!

would you consider some in-laws?

Seriously, I have a used set of Corelli mediums, or a used G, D, A of Spiro solos. I think I also have a used set of Labella Black Tape Wound somewhere.

I've also got an EUB gig bag in excellent shape that I since replaced with something else. Good for a small upright.

What are you looking for?

I guess the LaBella Black Tapes would fall under that last category? If you can find them, I'd do the trade for that. (I can't see myself using the LaBellas, but I've always been curious about them and I've had some students who've expressed interest in them.)

I found the Labella's.
I like them a lot on my Juzek (think Ron Carter), but not on my ply.
PM me with your address, etc, and I'll send them out early this week.

Hi Jeremy

My wife went to the post office and sent the Labellas.

I was surprised she got there so soon myself.

Hope you like them. They're really different...fat and smooth, but I dig them. They speak well.
