Dude, you love flats, but don't know Pyramid makes a 12-string set?
I think LaBella and Thomastik probably do as well.
obviously my research is lacking...

I've put a few sets of flatwounds on my Kramer fretless now. I dig the sound of them, the feel is a little interesting but something to get used to. I'm really digging it though!

It doesn't sound like you did any research.

I researched strings and beyond and they didn't have them...

I did a flatwound shootout by myself and the Pyramids won. Thomastik is Good, but they are better. At least to me

I don't think that I have ever used Flats, i've used Rounds all this time. I'm probably missing out.

I think you're right, it's just that I've been playing Thomastiks for a long time. It used to be that around here the Pyramids were a lot more expensive than the Thomastiks. The prices are now about the same. So, next time I need strings, I'll probably pick up some Pyramids.
