I enjoy making my own strings and have been hearing alot about padded loops lately.I like to use D-97 and I hear alot of people like mixing in B-50 for the padding in the loops, is there a benefit to using the B-50 or could I just use extra strands of D-97?I learned watching Chad's DVD, "Doin the twist"-great instruction.Thanks.

You can just use the D97. Some people, myself included feel that using B50 as padding decreases noise.

I find the B50 wears quicker than D97 or 450+. So I usually just add extra strands of the same material I'm using...Doc

It is just padding that is not in tension. Anything is good.

I think they use b-50 because its cheaper and since its not for tension it works good.
