    Aquilastrings Flatwound ABG String set (Copper flats on Bioplastic 'Sugar' core)

    Didn’t see that! Thank you. Only worry is the two reviews saying they broke on assembly. Wonder if it’s just an issue with trying to use flats on these smaller basses. I’ve always used slabs so this is all new to me.

    Aquilastrings Flatwound ABG String set (Copper flats on Bioplastic 'Sugar' core)

    Hmm, anyone have anything to note about these ones? I just worry that they’re not nylon core which seems necessary from what i’ve read about the Taylor Mini/Ibanez type ABGs.

    Aquilastrings Flatwound ABG String set (Copper flats on Bioplastic 'Sugar' core)

    Just a heads up, could not get these to work with a Ibanez PNB14E. Followed Aquilas directions, even took it to a luthier but they snapped on me both times and I also think the tension may be too high opposed to the strings it came with. Really bummed out as i was pumped to try some flatwounds...

    Guitar Scale Acoustic Basses

    Sweet! Thank you. Yeah I’m hoping the flats could work but would try the rounds too, they seem like they sound a lot better than the stock strings these things usually get.

    Looking for new strings for Ibanez PNB14E

    Hey! New here so sorry if this is the wrong place to ask but i’m trying to find a different set of strings for my acoustic. Don’t like how bright the bronze ones are. Did a bit of research and read that the La Bella CB40s could work but was just looking for more info. Also interested in flats or...
