i think it is because they arent making any money on them.
they stopped making the polyweb coating, and when i asked why, they said it was a marketing decision.
which means, guys like me, who use polyweb strings because they last longer then any other coated string, have to suffer with the "not as long lasting" nano's because we will end up buying more nano's, hence them making lots of money.
i dont know why they stopped making the 5 or 6 string models, but that too is probably a way to make more money. it just sucks because now i have to change my whole style of playing(going from pick to finger) if i cannot find another set of strings that last and sound as good as the polyweb strings. nano's sound great, but if you use a pick, forget it.
as for emp's. i wouldnt waste your time. i tried them. honestly, if you are looking for something like elixirs, good luck, ive tried 90% of the coated strings with no luck.
up next, wyres coated strings, and or the 24 karat gold jobbies.
