| Does anyone out there use or have tried Cobra Coil Pedal Steel guitar strings? What do you like or dislike about these strings? Thanks, Lonny |

I've used CCs for years and never had any problems at all. They last a long time and retain their crispness. I did try a couple different brands, but they weren't any better, so I went back to the tried and true CCs.

Cobra coils are great, long lasting and you can order the gauges you want from Bobbe, Larry

| I like them. To my ears, they sound a little more "crisper" (brighter?) than nickle-wound strings, but not quite as "crisp" as stainless-wound strings. |

Great strings and they last and last. I agree they are in between the 2 other alternatives.  |

| I really like them I have tried numerous others and I really liked George L but have since went with cobra coil in my opinion they sound better longer and lasted a little bit longer on my guitar. |

| I've been using Cobras for a couple of years and I've only had one break, and was one of the larger strings--nothin's perfect. But they stay good for ever and sound great. I recently tried a set of Live Strings and they sounded great too, but without a direct A-B comparison it's hard to tell the difference except that the Cobras seemed to have a little more sustain up in the high registers. But that could easily be my imagination. |
