Knucklehead
"Committed to proving Dad wrong!"
I'm a serious guitarist verging on the pompous and hide-bound.
For years, my strings have been the usual suspects - D'Addario, Martin, La Bella, ghs, Savarez - but I'd been hearing more and more good stuff about this Knucklehead bunch with the weird packaging and advertising.
Today I look into Bainbridge's own excellent Deering Music and the efficient (and distractingly attractive) helper advises me politely on Martin before adjusting my gaze to their stock of Knuckleheads.
A sale! And she was right, those Redhead steel acoustics *are* cool.
What's also good is - get this - the *extra* high-E string that comes with each set.
Someone in Knuckle Kingdom has done their homework.
