I have them on my Takamine and my Guild and I agree they sound really good. I have never tried them on any of my "O"s

I have used them on my other guitars but yet to put them on my Elite. So far I have tried some GHS not all that good, Elixer very good, and D'Addarios which came on the guitar when I bought it, also very good. The next step is the John Pearse and Dean Markly.

In the end, it's all an opinion.
After years of being loyal to one kind of string I recenty tried 3 different brands including J.P.
I'm back to using my old standards.

I have a friend, we occassionally play a little tune for each other over the phone...she on the piano, me on the guitar. She has a phenomenal ear (in addition to being a staggeringly talented muscian).

I had recently received my guitar back from it's million mile check up. It came back from the shop with D'adarrio Meds. When I played over the phone to her (she didn't know that the strings had been changed) she asked if it was the same guitar cause the voice was so different..."it didn't sing like usual...

I noticed as well...but didn't figure it was that noticable over a long distance phone call...

I put Elixirs Med back on...and she sings again.

Whatever your taste...amazing the difference strings can make...
