Having spent many years working in music stores I've played pretty much every size, shape and brand out there and I settled on Promark 5A nylons in their 'natural' finish. I don't know if it's the way I play but after 8+ years with them I've never broken a tip. Something that happened with every other company I used. They've got a new dip out called Progrip that looks pretty decent. I've been considering switching to the 747 or the 737 but the length pushes the balance point further out so I'm not sure if they will give me better reach or I'll just end up choking up my grip. I've still got 8ish pairs left of the 5A's so I'll use those up before experimenting, so field testing the new dips will have to wait. How much would it suck to find the grail and end up staring at all that unused lumber?
