Favorite Color String Wrap / Thread?

[barthanatos]

Just like the title says. Feel free to tell us what kind of strings come in said color, and whether or not the strings you use have your favorite color whipping on them.

I like the purple wrap - it goes really well with the gold hardware on my Cirrus (SIT Conklin Signature strings) and matches the yellowish tint of the Rob Allen well, too (LaBella 760n, tapewounds).

You didn't list chartreuse.

I like the look of black on my honey-red burst.

 

[.:chuck:.]

the green on flatwound fender strings...

I'm thinking that the red of the rotosounds that are on their way will look pretty good on my Tobacco Sunburst SR5!

 

[Baa]

"Naked" is my favourite. I just think it looks better that way.

 

[Timmayx]

I like the naked look, but I preffered the red that came with my Ibby

 

[Scott01]

I think black is best. Most universal/versatile yet more classy looking than naked strings

(too bad I have naked DR's )

I just put a set of Dean Markley SR2000's Will Lee's and they had a gold silk wrap. First time I saw that color and it looks pretty sharp on my MTD.

Does anyone know what color wrapping the GHS Flats come with? I finally found a place that sells single flats in .136. I don't really care that it isn't going to match the other 4, just curious....

man, i miss slowounds

 

[Fuzzbass]

Purple... as on the Ken Smith taperwounds.

 

[saxofunk]

Yellow. Without the silk I never would have been able to identify, and replace, the Fender 7150s that came on my slightly used G&L.... love them 7150s.

Well we all know that DR doesn't use any silky wrap on their strings. I would actually prefer if they did. White is the coolest.

 

[dlannom]

which string is it that has a different color for each string?

 

[david fitch]

D'addario Slow wounds had multi colored silk ends.

 

[ibz]

which string is it that has a different color for each string?

I'm interested here too, I've seen a pic of a roundwound set like this, but I have no clue who makes em.

 

[neptoon]

dude, read the post that was posted two hours before you asked like i said earlier...sure do miss slowounds

 

[Lorenzini]

I must say, after white wraps (my vote) I love the Ken Smith orange wraps. I also like the Ken Smith purple wraps.
TI wraps are nice because when you see red wraps, you just know some TIs are on there!

Who makes green wraps?

Kind of wish DR and D'Addario put wraps. Helps protect the tuners and looks nice.

Green, Black , Grey and I thought the TI power Bass purple was cool as well.
