I know that the Ernie Ball Aluminum Bronze strings have been discussed but I would like to give my opinion. I've read varied reviews of them as you do any guitar gear and even guitars. But I put a set on my Elite TX and I can't believe the sound! They are so crisp and clear with great low end. I've been playing it almost non stop, except for sleep, since I put them on a couple days ago. I am very impressed with them and I already loved the DR Rares that I was using. If these strings hold up well and last a while then I have found a new keeper. Time will tell though. If anyone is interested I will keep the board posted on my experience with the longevity of these strings. I try to play several hours a day so we should know soon. I hope they last because I am certainly loving this sound!

I know that no one will probably read this but I am impressed with these EB strings. This is probably gonna become my main string. I have played the heck out of them and they still sound great. Very impressive indeed.

Why would you think nobody will read this? It's been less than an hour and you've already had 81 folks read it. If they don't respond it's cause they haven't tried them yet.

Oh. My bad. I just thought everyone might be tired of this topic. I don't mean to bore or irritate folks. Just love to play and chat.

I've got a set to try out on the 2080. Everyone seems to have good things to say about them.

I just put on a new set of A/B's this afternoon. I always give a new set 24 hours to "acclimate"....Looking forward to playing tomorrow.

I listened to some of your Youtube stuff. You are really good. I enjoyed them greatly. Thanks for sharing.

I tried a set of these on my Elite 2778 Koa…love the sound. So far they are holding up well and are much easier on the fingers than Elixirs. I also tried the Martin Silk and Steel but they didn't last long.

I put these on my 1778T about a month ago. They do sound quite nice, and are holding up good so far.
I hope they start making them for 12 strings eventually.
