No not flat I use the Ricky Sounds ground wounds (semi flat) on the 12 which sound great and last forever. They sound focused and don’t have all thos bright harmonics all over the place. Loads of compression too. I’ve had the same set on my 12 for about 2 years. Just use Fast feet them before and after. Normal strings for the 6 string.
On 12-strings I think the factory 10-gauge rolled-wound strings are the best though - actually quite critical to the 'proper' sound.

And as if by magic I've been offered a 2001 Fireglo 360/6 in a trade for something.
I've never owned one, and the values seem all over the place for used ones.
They look gorgeous, though.
Is it worth getting one just because it's one of the enduring classics?
Are fakes easy to spot? Any 'good' years or years to watch out for?
Let's see pics

It's through gumtree and try as I might I just can't pull the pics off there.
I'll ask him to send some to my phone instead.
The guy says it's unmarked/unplayed with case and candy etc.
I'll be honest, I've always loved the look of them, especially the 360 curvyness.
(I do like the ones with herringbone binding too, but they seem to be the higher end ones)
They all look to be very well built.
I just can't decipher why there's so much variation in prices.
Reverb has the 360 going from less than a grand to £1800, new they're similarly varied in price
Trying to gauge prices on here doesn't help either as they tend to be a bit lower.
Any advice re: values?
