    im not a roackabilly guy but i would think that EB Flats would do the trick nicely. Bovinehost, another mod on this forum, plays rockabilly and he swears flast are awesome for it... and i trust him.

    you can buy em online various places including:
    http://www.musiciansfriend.com/home/...nie+ball+flats

    a few of my buddies on this forum has used MM flats and says theyre awesome as well... especially for the price.

    info about the strings over at:

    hope that helps man

    ps: you like the lee rocker solo albums? i love that stuff

    Thank you phatduckk for your quick response. I was actually looking for guitar strings. Any suggestions?

    BTW, I am a big fan of Lee Rocker. Buzz (singer on some tracks) from Hot Rod Lincoln is one awesome guitarist. HRL is great stuff!!

    Thanks again!
