Argies are round core

Visual hi mag inspection does confirm that argies are still round core.....except at the tip where best I can tell they are tweaked between some rollers....anyway flat spots for a few inches then round.

hmmm.... Cool. It might explain why they seem to be more consistent out of the pack these days without sacrificing their silky feel.

Thanks for checking!

As Darth Vader would say:

Michael...Bob...do you have any idea how tedious unwinding a string is by hand :shock:

I was happy to see that they are still round core.

I was disappointed that the tension on the Newtones was so high. They are great round core strings. Probably better sound than the Argies but one would need a pretty substantial top and bracing setup.
