WOW! FANTASTIC OVER-THE-TOP EXCELLENT STRINGS. GREAT TONE! GREAT SUSTAIN! VOLUME! I HAVE BEEN USING PRICEY, COATED STRINGS! AND AT THIS GUAGE THEY ARE SO EASY TO PLAY! AND THESE STRINGS ARE SO MUCH MORE AFFORDABLE THAN PRICEY COATED STRINGS! I HAVE BEEN PLAYING GUITARS FOR OVER 60 YEARS AND HAVE USED DIFFERENT STRINGS BUT THESE ARE THE BEST I HAVE EVER USED BY FAR!

A few years ago I dedicated myself to only acoustic guitar. Since then I’ve tried a variety of strings and I’ve come to the conclusion that the daddario phosphor bronze are simply the most consistent from set to set and for some reason unknown to me seem to have the least problems with intonation on a standard tuned guitar. I have dabbled with both the xt and xs variants as well. For me, there’s are hardly any difference in durability between the standard ej phosphors and the xt’s. The xs does last considerably longer but the feel is much different. I also suspect they have slightly more tension due to the coating but I have not looked at any actual numbers. Im not sure if others have found this to be true, but I cleaned my strings after every practice/play session and for longer periods of practice I will often clean them several times. This significantly increases the string life. They might not retain the brand new zing but the sound is still very pleasing. I will let them go for a full week with several hours a day play time. This is acceptable to me. If I played less they might last longer. All in all a great product. If you need further endorsement, Glaser guitars in Nashville doesn’t used anything else but Daddario. I’d wager Mr. Glaser knows a thing or two.

It took me a while and a few different sets of strings to find the perfect match for my playing style, but the search was absolutely worth it. These strings provide exactly what I was looking for—an ideal balance of sound quality and comfort. I primarily fingerpick and play on the softer side without a pick, and many other strings I tried were either too stiff, too bright, or lacked the warm, resonant tone I wanted. These light-gauge strings, however, hit the sweet spot. They’re soft enough on the fingers to make long sessions comfortable, yet they still deliver a full, rich tone without losing clarity. The responsiveness is excellent, and they produce a smooth, balanced sound whether I’m playing delicate melodies or intricate fingerpicking patterns. If you’re someone who values a warm, articulate sound and wants a set of strings that feels effortless to play, I highly recommend these. They’ve completely elevated my playing experience, and I’ll be sticking with them from now on! Pros: ✔️ Perfect for fingerpicking and softer playing styles ✔️ Great balance of comfort and sound quality ✔️ Light gauge makes them easy on the fingers ✔️ Rich, warm tone with great clarity Cons: ❌ None so far—just wish I had found them sooner!

I have always preferred uncoated strings both electric and acoustic. They ring out better. True, they don't last as long and changing strings is a pain. But like good pickups, sound on an electric guitar is about 50% pups, 40% strings, and 10% for all the other components. For acoustics strings can be 80% for a poor guitar and 40% on a really nice guitar. All my opinion, of course. But, new,clean uncoated strings give you better sound.

前から使っていますが、とてもいいです。5セットとかがあるといいのですが。

Great Strings! I've been using these for over 4 years and are the best reso strings IMHO. Plus, if they're good enough for Jerry then they're good enough for me. Bright, loud and long lasting and much warmer than anything else I've tried. This is as much based on my taste, preference and instrument but it gets me sounding more like Jerry Douglas than any other strings

Très bon jeu de corde qui m'a servi avant de passer sur des Nickel Bronze toujours de chez D'Addario, c'est une marque que j'affectionne beaucoup, qui n'a plus à faire ces preuves, je recommande donc fortement.
