No pun intended, right? 😃

The correct answer is orange or pink. Or green.

Hard to see for who and in what conditions? I always see this, and people talk about neon yellow being supreme. But I swear upon everything I hold dear than in real playing conditions where _I_ want to see the string (less concerned about stage visibility), yellow is one of the worst.

Dark colours contrast well with most floors since people tend to have light tiles and carpeting. If you have dark hardwood that’s an exception I guess. Dark contrasts nicely against an overcast sky, too, which I cannot say about neon yellow.

In neon colours, green pink and orange are still generally contrasty enough in those conditions…

But dark colours aren’t “hard to see” in most of my play environments. They’re fine.
