### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great strings

Fantastic strings for my prs se guitar

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect
*by M***D on 12 December 2024*

I wanted to switch to coated strings, as having multiple guitars it felt like standard ones didn't last very long before they were dull, meaning I just always had a couple feeling lifeless and rubbery. Switching to these has made a huge improvement. They sound and feel great and are very durable too. I've been using XTs on everything for a few years now and I don't know if I've ever broken one whilst playing. I comfortably get 3 months out of each set with them still sounding good. Unless someone can point me to something which can sound good for longer, I don't know how these can be beaten.
