Product Description
An ultra-fine layer of EXP Coating is bonded to the phosphor bronze wrap wire which is then wound onto the hex-shaped core wire. The result is a built-in barrier against the corrosion and wear that can quickly sap the life out of your strings and your sound. EXP coated phosphor bronze strings have a natural round wound feel and sound fresh and bright with a 'new string tone' that lasts three to four times longer than traditional guitar strings.

Simply the best I've used July 3, 2008
I have been playing acoustic guitars for over 15 years now. I am by no means a virtuoso, but I do play regularly with my praise team. I have been intrigued by the seemingly endless list of acoustic guitar strings available, and I have tried dozens of different brands and types all over the price scale. These strings, in my opinion, offer the best value of all the ones that I have used. They probably last about three times as your average uncoated set of strings in their "prime," and they don't deteriorate as fast at the end of their lifecycle (so you can keep procrastinating changing your strings without sacrificing as much). 5 Stars.
Great sounding set of coated strings. December 10, 2007
I've been using these strings for about eight years, and I also use them on my two Taylor's (814-CE & I use the mediums on my 710) I agree with the other reviewer in saying they are the best sounding coated string out there. I still use Martin strings once in awhile, but these strings last and improve in sound as they get a few hours of play on them.
Actually I own three other acoustics other than my two Taylor's and right now they're all strung with EXP's. I know people want different sounds from their strings, but I find these to be bright with a great bottom on them, unlike the Elixirs which I find to be unbearably bright with a weak bottom end. These strings sound great with great dynamics on them. Even on my Laguna Grand Symphony (slightly larger than a Grand Concert) they pump out the lows and sparkle on the highs. These on my Grand Auditorium do the same thing, they produce the sound I demand and make a real positive improvement over the other coated strings I've used.
The Mediums on my 710 have an endless bottom end and still have great range on the mid's and treble.
As I said I still use Martin Phosphor Bronze strings once in awhile, but honestly these strings hold up extremely well and sound great. Darn near as near to an uncoated string that you're going to find.

Best coated strings on the market March 23, 2005
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I have tried all of the coated, long life strings and these are by far the best sounding. They also don't have that "slick" or "wet" feel the Elixir strings have, they feel just like uncoated strings with the same loud, crisp sound as uncoated strings. I am very impressed with these strings and they will be the only strings I use from now on for my Taylor acoustic guitar. Thanks, D'Addario!
