As ever I hate all coated strings - except the DR ones, which I have on my cheap resonator because it tends to get handed round at jams... I still don't really like the feel of them, but they do sound OK.

I've tried a few others over the years but have come back to the D'Addarios. I tried some different alloys but the 80/20 bronze seems to go off quickly. Phosphor bronze seems to last twice as long. Newtone phosphor bronze were quite good but I had 3 sets where there was a major problem with the D string sounding horribly out of tune. The intonation at the 12th fret was way off with all 3 of them. They may have been from the same bad batch as I tend to buy in bulk, but after that I went back to D'Addario which also have the advantage of being a bit cheaper.
