Do you guys mix a tapered B w/non-tapered? I just got my first string-thru-body axe and broke the core winding of a non-tapered B immediately. Instead of just getting a tapered B, figured I'd ask around and see whether it's better to get a whole tapered set, or just use a tapered B. Opinions? What are the pros and cons of mixing them?
It happens all the time. Lots of string makers pre-package 5 or 6 strings sets with just tapered B's. D'Addario (Prisms and Slowounds) does it and La Bella too, among others. Tom
