Title: Definitely Better Off Getting The Non-Coated Versions
Review: These strings aren't as good as the exact same strings minus the "extended play" coating. The coating just makes the strings squeakier and scratchier, flat picking or finger plucking. Also, it makes the guitar sound more metallic. I suppose the coating will make them last longer, but it really isn't worth the loss in sound quality. Maybe I could see recommending these strings to someone if they were only going to play their guitar like once a year, and then the rest of the time it was going to sit unloved, strings oxidizing. But even then, I'd probably err on the side of skip 'em.Laters, ya'll.
