How long have you been using?

What is so special that you like most and least?
Advantages: Longevity quite impressive (I have some guitars with a set mounted for more than 6 or 8 months playing it at least 2-3 times / week and they sound like the beginning) even if they had really played extensively much longer than others.

Did you try many other models before buying it?
Yes, many brands except coated other brands that have emerged in the meantime but it tells me nothing, I am filled with Elixir ...
How do you rate the quality / price?
Excellent! But must be purchased by pack! On a site not end bay we found a lot and much cheaper than France!

Of course, there is no better!
