A lot of the classic 1960's Rickenbacker sounds were made using flatwound strings. They have a mellower sound than roundwound strings, which are used more in modern music. Some Rickenbacker users say that flatwounds are the only way to get that tone on those records by The Byrds, The Beatles and the Beach Boys. Other players prefer roundwounds for playbility and chime.
On today's shootout I'll be using my 1999 Rickenbacker 360/12v64 with scatterwound toaster pickups into my 1974 Fender Pro Reverb.
Roundwound strings- Curt Mangan 9-46 Light Nickel
Flatwound strings- Pyramid Gold 10-.465 Chrome Nickel
The flatwounds were a little more difficult for me to play because I chose a higher gauge, and the combination of my sausage fingers and narrow string spacing wasn’t ideal. I just ordered a set of Curt Mangan flatwound 9-42’s that should be perfect.
Let me know which sound you prefer!
