    D'Addario EXP16 with NY Steel Phosphor Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings, Coated, Light, 12-53

    • The polyweb are mellow and have a softer feel
    • great feel.
    • No crazy coating, great feel, even better sound.
    • I put these on my Taylor 314ce great feel, great tone, crisp and clear brought out more lows and mid vs the elixirs I have been using
    • That way you lose the slick feel and 'plasticy' sound but still have the benefit of the coating to protect the string.
    • good feel
    • The feel is not has smooth as the Elixir counterpart but the sound and playability in terms of bending strings make up for it.
    • Easy on the fingers with a nice feel.
    • Warm and good feel
    • the strings have a good feel and a sweet sound, stay in tune, they are a bit lighter than I'm use to they seem to loose some brightness sooner than i expected.
    • They stay in tune well and have a good feel.
    • I don't like the finger squeak and prefer the slicker feel.
    • The feel is amazing
    • No issues with the strings, although they cost more than non coated strings, so not a good feeling when you put a set on a new guitar, and decide your new guitar needs a set up.
    • I love the feel, sound, and longevity
    • They also lack the slippery feel of the Elixer coated strings, and they last a long, long time.
    • I don't know how to express my delicate feeling and satisfaction with words, but this is the best string I have ever played
    • It gives a more intimate feel to the playing and helps create a softer atmosphere.
    • The coating extends the life of the strings considerably and makes for a smoother feel.
    • That way you lose the slick feel and 'plasticy' sound but still have the benefit of the coating to protect the string.
    • No crazy coating, great feel, even better sound.
    • very nice and have a good feel
    • Amazing sound, amazing feel and last 3-4 months for someone who plays everyday
    • They had a rough feel and were stiff
    • It may be my imagination, but these seem to make the guitar easier to play, (less pressure required/looser feel)
    • Elixir have less noise and slicker feel, but didn't seem to last as long.
    • I have them on my hummingbird, they have a nice feel and tone
    • But in practice, they seem like more of a compromise: less long-lasting than the Elixirs, but with less of a "slick" feel
    • My high E is always breaking
