I have been using these string now for over a year and love them. They have a traditional nickel roundwound sound for the most part but keep their tone for several months. Its has a very clear yet thick sound. The coating really feels good on the fingers and makes doing slides really easy. I also love the look of them.
There are only two cons to these strings. The price is steep but they last so long its almost a non-factor. The other is the coting wears off quickly in the pickup area if you use a pick.
I would recommend them for any style as I have heard them with a pick, fingers, slap, and double thump and the tone just kills me. I have tried many strings but none have given me the tone or durability these have.
