I personally like them a lot. Maybe just a little more than Jagwires. They sound a lot closer to stainless steel then nickle and seem to last longer than anything else I have ever tried.

I have been using Cobras for a couple of years and love them.The tone lasts for a long time,in fact I really do not hear any deterioration in the tone and they do last a lot longer than other brands I have tried.

I've been using them for about a year now and like them a lot! I've been told by a prominent Nashville player that Cobra Coils makes strings for George L's/same thing. They seem to last a long time and hold their tone.

I'm currently using Jagwires, but I've used Cobra Coils in the past, and I would use them again. Excellent strings IMO. Can't go wrong with either brand.

same as Mike, even though i use Jagwires, i really liked Cobra Coils
Quality strings that do sound good & are durable
Thanx Bobbe

I have used them for several years and really like them. They retain their tone a long time and very rarely break. I have a GFI and a Sho Bud I use them on and they sound great on both guitars.

I've been using them on my Derby for a couple of years now. I like the tone better than anything else I've tried, and, although I do change them now and then, I always feel like I'm throwing away perfectly good strings.

I've used Cobra Coil E9 Premiums for a year or so. As others have said here, they sound great, the tone lasts a very long time, and they rarely break. When bought in bulk they're reasonably priced too. The only brand in the local music store is D'Adarrio, but they can't touch CC.
