    I need a pack of flats. I don't want to mess up my fretless fretboard with roundwounds. If anybody out there has a spare pack of flats or even a old pair they can hook me up with I'll greatly appreciate it. I really don't have any extra money to throw down right now for a pack so I thought someone on TB might could help me out.
    :help:

    Rounds aren't going to chew up your fingerboard overnight, or even over years. Even if you play hard and often it takes a long time, so I wouldn't worry too much. Of course, you can only get the flatwound sound from flatwounds, so if that is your quest, go for it!

    I switched from GHS Pressure Wounds to Chromes. You are welcome to 3 sets of the GHS collecting dust if you pay shipping. I would need your UPS or FedEx account. Long scale medium light. 44-58-80-102. Let me know if you are interested.

    Strings Free... If you have a UPS ground account it should be around $10. FedEx is a little more. Setting up an account just takes a CC and doesn't cost anything. Give them a call if you have questions about setting up an account.
