I’ll admit I am more a fan of TI Swings than D’Addario Chromes.
There have been times I really enjoyed gliding around on flats, especially on ebony. Dang, that’s just slicker’n snot on marble!
Generally though, it isn’t long before I start to want a livelier sound on the wound strings.
I have some Swings on my L-5 presently. It makes sense since I have other guitars, but I’m getting ear fatigue from them lately, and will soon change to something with more zip.
On some guitars with flatwounds installed, when I get a nice fluffy jazz sound on the trebles, the bass strings are mud city. On something like a Gretsch, it’s set for bright and works OK then.
