The Steel Guitar Forum

I've been thinking about trying the cobra steel guitar strings.any body tried them and what do you think of them compared to other good brands? thank you for your input.

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'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.
