You're welcome. Those flats are the perfect match for any Beatle-ish med
scale bass. I could even imagine them on one of those med scale Guilds with
the hot PU.

And that's a large part of the relief and public thanks, cause after hating

Ya, I agree with Rob, the Thoms are not my cup of tea, and too wiggly for me

The Thoms were pretty pricey, so I'll have to try the Labellas.

Although I do like the GHS Flats.
