That's a serious response from the mothership ...never read that before. Who knows how much of it is about "tone" or "performance" as I have grown skeptical of "ad copy" responses. That said, if it's an economic decision that makes sense, more power to em!
Fwiw, I like D'Addario as a company, and have used their electric strings for decades as they sound good and perform well. And particularly, their 3 and 10 packs are great deals that make good strings even better. But I stick with Elixir PBs for acoustic use because they work well and laaaast; and they sound good to the last drop of their life which is critical to me (no sense in having longevity if the tone degrades!). They also have a medium-light set which works great on GC and GA bodies, so that's a gauge I live by.
Like many things with instruments, strings are highly subjective and have
everything to do with personal preferences. Having so many choices these days really makes it great. Rock on, all!
