Just strung my guitar but had a hard time setting the intonation on D. I don't know yet if they will hold tune. Otherwise they are good so far. Sound is clean. I still think I like my Gibson Reissue better. But I have been using those for years so its a change. Just thought I would try something different on my Giby Custom. I do like the smooth feel of the EAD.

I used to use flat wounds years ago on my Fender ES335 and was happy with the way they felt, but I totally reversed my opinion when trying them again this time, not the feel, but with the sound. They sound out of tune even right after I tune them and trying to set the intonation especially on the lower strings was impossible no matter where I set the adjustment. Never again will I waste my money on any flat wound set of strings. Into the garbage they went. I'll just stick to my nice sounding and reliable bullets for my strat. Terribly disappointed.

I remember way back when I was really into guitars. The strings I used after trial and error ended up being 10s flat wound. They were easy to go up and down the fret board. I even used baby powder to make it even easier. Anyhow I still love the feel of them buggers today. Give them a try, you won't be disappointed. Guitarzan the player.

If you need flat wound bottoms with light top… these will do fine

Not as smooth as they used to be, or as others I have used; but quite usable and no squeeks sliding barr chords.
