i have for a few weeks D'Addario EHR360
EHR stainless steel halfround n my ibanez af 105f and i like them much better 'cause there are more musically, i use to play with thomastieks bebop 14's.

Been useing GB 12s for a while now,far superier than the swings,in fact nothing else comes close,and I've tried them all -at nearly twice the price they should be. I thought I'd try the BE-Bops,big mistake, put them on took them strait off again, uneven tone, corroded d&e strings, exchanging for GB14s, I hope I can handle them!. I also use Ti's Plectrum 12s on my acoustic,none better IMO...

I agree - I have had these exact EHR360 strings on my jazz guitar for a while recently. I was a bit unsure at first, but now really like them. I think I probably would just prefer the Newtone Archtop double roundwound strings, but its very close for me. The D'Addarios certainly are a great option for a brighter string than flatwounds, but with very little finger squeak.

Hi everyone, new member here and first post!

I too was wondering what TI BeBop strings SwingSwangSwung was using on his L5 in the video so I e-mailed him. He said they were .013s. I think I will order some and give them a try.
