No, these strings are not for me! A lot of people really like them, but I don't!. First of all, the Nanoweb coating makes them feel very slippery under my (left-hand) fingertips. I thought I could maybe get used to this, but after three weeks I've given up. I have several guitars, and the others are fitted with standard, uncoated strings, so I could easily compare them.
Also, they sound too bright and 'metallic' for my taste, but I suppose this is to be expected from 80/20 strings.
Anyway, this is just my opinion.
If their main feature is “long lasting” then I would argue that they lose their tonality and intonation quicker than some other choices. The real value is that these strings do reduce guitar string “squeak” and that has been useful for recording subtle finger picking.
These strings are very durable and the sound is constant. They will not fade due to the oxidation.
On my Taylor this strings sounds great. Until now, they are the best strings that I've tried. Really reccomended.
