Of all the strings I've tested these not only last as long as or longer than coated strings, but they make my Martin sound like an expensive all wood higher end model.

Nice full sound

D'Addario is a consistent sound and quality

These strings warm it up a bit to where it's not so shrill sounding

These strings give an excellent mellow sound, and stay in tune very well through some pretty intense bends

these made my guitar sound 100% clearer and smoother

Beautiful, warm sound

unquestionably great, pure nickel sound, and the price on azon was so nice

Sliding up and down the lower strings feels smooth the sound is superb.

He was so excited at the rich sound he heard after putting them on

If you've had quality issues with DR's but love their sound, here's the solution to your problem.

Good sound

I put them on and plugged in.....great silky sound that works well dirty or clean.

They also have a nice blues sound.

They are dark and rich sounding, yet very clear with a thinner 0.60 mm Tortex Wedge pick.

I really love the warm sound of these strings and I was surprised at how good they feel while playing.

This medium gauge is no exception and has a great sound in open E tuning and using a slide.
