Well, got bored and decided to restring my Flea concert (with polycarb fretboard) with the new J53 strings. Any one else with this combo? How do you like it? My strings are starting to settle, so far:
Pros:
*Thicker strings when compared to my old Worth clear strings; a little easier to fret
*Black nylon matches my Lava Flea quite nicely
*Volume and sustain are good; strings are great for picking
*Inexpensive
Cons:
*Strings take a while to settle
*Finger noise is apparent but tolerable; the stock Hilo strings were far worse
*Not as bright as the Worth clear strings
I like these strings though.
