I ordered 4 sets from him and paid $ 8 to have them shipped to Holland. Then he contacted me that I had to pay an additional fee of $ 8 to cover the expenses involved in shipping to Holland....which I did. The strings arrived in an envelope with $ 3 worth of stamps on it......

All the way down to the original glass Mullard OC44 transistor, the "Dyna-Ranger" is a 5 range version of our favorite single germanium transistor treble booster from England...
I bought two sets vintage 010 and two sets rock 010 about two years ago. On the rock sets I broke a string within 10 minutes (the last time I broke a d'Addario was 25 years ago) but the vintage sets have been on my guitars for ehhh.....two years and they still sound to good to replace.
+1
I use those as well (actually a 1.4 mm version) but I don't think that 4 for $ 20 is too expensive since they last forever. (I've been using one for about a year now)
I have an Asat Z3; Chadley's description is correct. Great pickups but in a band they sound better than at home (i.m.h.o.). They cut like nothing else without being too bright.
Yes, officially it applies to anything new. In 'reality' it's a non-issue.
In most shops you still find old-fashioned solder.
The law is there, problem is that they don't know how to excecute it.
I think my post was a bit confusing. I mean that according to the reviewer the George L, Planet Waves and Monster are better than the Lyric BUT MY ears tell me the opposite is true. (I really like the Lyric)
Well, I'm not Lavaman but I think the test is just a personal opinion of the writer. I have both the George L, Planet Waves, Monster and the Evidence Lyric (non-HG). According to the test, the Evidence is 'worse' than the other 3. My ears tell me something entirely different.
I switched from GeorgeL to Cardas (from Lavacable) a couple of weeks ago. I was surprised how much of a difference they make (in a positive way that is :-)
My favorite picks. Slightly bigger than a Jazz III (actually they're right between the Jazz III and the ' regular' bigger Dunlops). For some reason I can play much faster with those picks....which might be between the ears of course :-)
