Amazing Sustain
Not only do they look cool, these are the best sounding strings I have found in 40 years of playing. The sustain on a single chord is amazing. They are bright, but not tinsly. Really good buy.

Love at first stum
Iโll never use any other brand of string again. Unless itโs their colorful coated ones. I did a lot of research before deciding that I wanted the sound of coated, medium strings for my acoustic guitar. I definitely was willing to pay the extra $1 for black strings ๐คbut they are functionally behind looking cool. High quality, I donโt constantly break my g string now and are comfortable to play.

Decent sounding strings
I was really surprised by these strings, they sound really excellent and Iโve not had any breakage. Originally I tried them because I thought the look would be nice with the tusque XL black nut and bridge. Iโd just done a re-fret with EVO gold and the whole look was real nice

Look great but...
They're not very clear sounding. Almost sound dead from the start. Not a fan of the acoustic set. I do use the Black Beauty's on my basses and that's where they shine imo.

Mellow string sound
I'm a big fan of DR coated strings. They give a mellow phosphorus coated sound without any finger noise sliding between frets.Easy on the fingers.They're very durable, although the pick does wear off the coating where I stum; it doesn't change that mellow sound.

They sound muddy and muted; coating came off the G-string the same day I put them on
I love DR strings; their RARE phospor bronze are the best-sounding acoustic string for the money. I saw these Black Beauties and thought "cool....they're coated and supposed to last". (SIDE NOTES: I had a big "DUH" moment when I realized they are ACTUALLY black.) They look pretty cool on my Taylor dreadnought. You can't really see them except between the sound hole and the bridge. However, I was immediately disappointed in the sound.They sound muddy and muted, like they have been on the guitar for a year. I put them on yesterday, proceeded to play for about 3 hours, and the coating started coming off the G-string! The same day! I have already ordered a set of RARE to replace them. Oh, well.
