Rounds for String Through Mustang?

[GIBrat51]

OOF! Just checked the price...

I never said they were cheap; just that they'd fit... Seriously, though; yeah, that does seem more than a little excessive. I got mine from Amazon, as an "accordion accessory"... I can't remember how much they cost, but it wasn't that much. I got them by mistake (I wanted ss flats); and, of course, I can't find them now. Still, maybe if you win the lottery...

Luckily we can get the Jazz Flats pretty easily round here but they're still $110!

I put them on my buddy's AmPro Mustang and they crush it. I love Dunlop flats.

Ah, good to hear. Thanks!

BTW, I just reread the title and you specified "round". My fault! Here is where I look when I am interested in these types of things. It is not my intention to violate any forum rules, so forgive me if I do!

TI jazz rounds are an option. I like these a lot but they are expensive.

My MIJ Mustang PJ came fitted with medium-scale D'Addario nickel-plated roundwounds. Not sure about the gauge, but I found them a bit too lacking in tension for my liking.

I have since settled on GHS medium-scale Boomers (45 - 105), which feel much more like normal long-scale strings, tension-wise. At just under US$20, they're quite reasonably priced too. Not to mention their nice, growly, moderately bright tone.

I wouldn't be too hung-up on choosing only from what's available locally, which in the case of medium-scale strings is probably not much. I order all my GHS strings five or six sets at a time from Fret Nation in the US, so the shipping costs per pack work out pretty low.
