Otto D'Ambrosio of Eastman has a video on Eastman's Facebook page where he sets up an archtop. Long and short of it, he sets relief between .005 and .010 inches at the 5th fret with the e strings...
It's a deal, I think. 12 sets in a box, 60 bucks a box. That's $5 a set. I bought a box. TI's nickel strings are way more than that! I bought the .013-.056's. At the rate that I change strings, that...
