So, I play GHS True Medium gauge strings on my Martin - they're 13-17-24-32-42-56. The lighter A, D & G string really help to balance out the tension of the set. With the new coated eb strings on the market now, I'd love to see a set of these TM's from EB - any plans?

I just bought some from GC, the salesman was giving them a big thumbs up, he said he put them on his guitar this week and said the tone was great and loud. Just need my acoustic to get here so I can try them out.:)

I put some on my acoustic right when we got them ... then proceeded to finish dinner/laundry/etc. I didn't really get a chance to pick my guitar up again until last night. They didn't even need to be re-tuned!!! sounded great

OK finally got to test the new acoustic strings, granted I like smaller gauges so these are the extra-lights but man how nice.

Nice and easy to play like all slinkys sound loud and bright just what the doctor ordered, plus 1 on these great job BP and everyone involved at Ernie Ball:)

OK just have to sing the praises of these again, unreal how good they are, i just bought what I consider to be a low end acoustic, been awhile since I owned one but the price was right, anyways, sounded like crap out of the box and would not stay in tune, slapped some of the new EB strings on it and man what a difference, sounds and plays great and hav not had to tune it again since putting them on, so highly recommend these puppies:D:cool:

what about coated bass strings from EB?

hello,

i was wondering if the coating treatment will also appear for electric instruments? :confused:

especially for the bass strings :D

i mean i still like EB strings most, but.... they never last that long (compared to the price you'll need to pay for them), they're worth the money when talking about sound :cool:, but when it comes down to how long they last it's a bit less worth the money....

since i use EB's on my Stingray's, which would be for approx. 6 years by now, i need a new set every 2 months...... :(

so i really can't wait untill there will be coated EB bass strings!

greets!
