What kind of strings did John use?: I've got the following questions from Riccardo:

1)Didn't John Deacon ever play a Stingray with Rotosound flats?
2)I need to find out what strings John Deacon used to use because he got such a cool sound with them!

On an interview in 1979, he said he used 'superwound'. Besides, a friend of mine told me that John's name was seen on an ad about roundwound strings of ROTO. Does anybody have more information about them?

Special Tribute Video: Have you seen a special 15-minute video for Freddie on the official website? (Go to "SPECIAL" - "Click here to Freddie Tribute" - "video") Our John also left his words about Freddie! (It was taken in early '90s, though.)

Thank you for reading! See you next week!
