I guess these are kind of new (I've been out of the loop for a while, so maybe not). Has anybody had any experiences with them? Good or bad?

The only strings I've been using for a while now. They really show up on stage.

Any negative effects you've noticed? How long do they take to wear out?

[Von Felgenhauer]

I don't care for too bright of a string so I haven't had to replace them for going dead. They hold their tune. The set I have on now has been at least 6 months. The only reason why I've put another set on is cause I had a problem with my e string breaking but it was the bridge saddles and not the strings. If you are in a heavily gigging band it might be easier then other brands to get an endorsement since they are the only neon strings and people will know what they are. My only complaint is that the coating does ware off and starts to stick to the pickups a little. Not a problem if you clean your bass after each use though
