Rotosound nickels?

Sign in to disble this ad
Has anyone tried the Rotosound nickel plated stainless strings RS665LDN? I like the magnetic response of Rotosound strings but not the harsh feel. I was hoping the nickel plating on this particular set might improve this.

I tried a couple of sets a few years ago when they still had the old lion pack. They used to say Pure Nickel on the pack, I'm not sure if they still are. I liked them, but they didnt sound much like the stainless set, they were smoother than the steels but still a bit rougher (wider wraps) than other nickels. They died quick, but had a fantastic sound when new.
