Thomastik BB114

I use this set of strings for a short-scale 1950s Gretsch Rambler. I'm somewhat familiar with Thomastiks, having used them on my vintage Martin and modern Gibson acoustics, and in terms of quality this set is no different. The string-to-string balance is excellent, the feel is superb, honestly these strings completely brought this guitar alive.

Definitely worth a try if you're not into flatwounds on archtops, and are looking for something different with a little bit more 'edge'. The construction is brilliant and the strings are on a year and still sound as good as day one.
