the round core, and the (nickel) material. Smoother tone, nicer tension (a set of 11's feels like 10's), longer life, better string to string balance, nicer feel, and they sound like a 1950's record in the best possible ways. Chromes feel and sound cheap in comparison. IMO and YMMV.
I may have to give them a shot Walter, Thanks for the tip and description. I am also curious as I thought I read somewhere that you had wax potted all of your Franz pickups to eliminate or reduce the feedback on stage. I have never potted a set of pickups myself and was curious what all this entails as I may be interested in doing mine or having them done. Thanks again!
