i just bought an 8 string and inquired on an earlier thread about what type of strings to use. someone suggested SIT strings, i found em, but does anyone have any experience with them? are tehy a good string, do they sound good, do they last long? i'd apreciate any input, thanks
They are all I play now... I use the powerflats and SS Rockbrites. I played their nickelwounds as well and they were very nice. The SS's last longer than anything else I've played and they are very musical sounding, IMO. There's a whole sub-forum for strings, BTW. I'm sure a mod will be moving this shortly... A search there might reveal more.
They come standard issue on American made G&L's. I tried a few other brands on my L-2500, but came back to SIT's. They have a nice sound and last a long time. I get them at Just Strings I see that they do have 8 string sets.
They're all I use now. They are great. A little brighter and not as sticky as GHS Pressurewounds... If you get a chance to try them you'll like them...
