I could have sworn that I had some info that said they were round core. I must have somehow crossed my round core and round wound wires. Thanks for the correction. Sent from my iPhone using...

Where I live L5's are almost mythical. 'I've heard of 'em, I just ain't actually seen one...'. However, I am very grateful for the fact that the guitar which I own and would never sell was acquired...

What beats an L5?
