I was given some sets of MSV Co-Focus in both 1.27 and 1.18 gauges to experiment with...
Full bed 1.27 was a bit too stiff for my liking, so I figured to try 1.27 in mains and 1.18 in crosses (same tension for both). Idea was that the thinner cross would soften up the stringbed a bit. It does feel better, but made me think whether I would get even better results with the thinner gauge in the main and thicker in the cross.
Before I cut out and restring, anyone have general observations about gauge sizes in mains vs crosses?
Less durable with thinner mains? Or maybe more durable if the thicker cross cuts into the mains less and causes less notching than a thinner cross? What about stiffness of stringbed either way? Spin production?
