860L PhBronze DuraTone Coated : EDIT March 2020

6 years ago

Good bye to D'ario and Exir brands, sais I, after trying out these Fender strings. These strings sing so well and so balanced Im speachless! Very articulate and very warm, no mud here on the lower strings and no harsh on the high strings! Love it! Im totally sold! Not sure how long they will last but time will tell. The Exir brand sounds too thin and the D'ario brand sounds too dark (good for Delta Blues maybe, but not for my style). These Fender strings sound just right, very balanced. Did I say they are very balanced? Yes they are! My go to string for my solid spruce top dread with Ovangkol fretbaord and Walnut back and sides!

EDIT March 2020; Must say these didnt last very long before they sounded like a tin can. They lost that 3D sound and sounded flat after 3 month. I only play this guitar at home. I wish they lasted longer. Will try the Elixir again just to observe how long it lasts and then make a decission if Im to go back to this Fender set or not.
