Flatwound vs Round with Seth Lovers

[tsp17]

I put Seths and new pots in my new (to me ) Millie chambered.    I play flat 12s on all my other guitars so I had my tech put on flatwound 11s on this one.  They sound pretty great.  

He was telling me that to get the most out of Seths- go round wound.  I can imagine that rounds give it a little more presence and harmonic complexity, but haven’t tried it yet. 

Easy enough for me to do a string swap….I’ll try rounds when i change strings, but now I’m super curious and thinking about doing it sooner rather than wait till the current strings get tired.  

 

Your thoughts and experience?

 

thanks.
