    Difference between Regular Slinky's and RPS Reg. Slinkys?

    Pete hooked me up with a set of RPS 10's today, and RPS 9's. I'm currently using the Hybrid Slinky's on my JP6 now and I love them. Whats the difference between the RPS Hybrids and the Regular Hybrids? I'm just curious what the difference in feel and tone are. Thanks in advance.

    I asked this same question a few months ago and apparently they are tonally the same. Its all a matter of a re enforced ball wrap on the RPS.
