I did this to one of my guitars and it really does work. My silver PRS that has a painted neck. Although since the grain is so light on the paper, I think it is time to do it again. I would suggest anyone try it. You may want to check it on the neck of a guitar that is not your "go-to" just to see, but I really liked the way it felt. This isn't really for tone, but it is such a nice feel it's fresh like new strings - which could help playing and could help tone. This is a very interesting video. I think that it must be a very nice feel but I wonder the reason why it would help to become faster... what's the reason why? Bogdan made me remember on the Fast Fret product. I've never tried it, it is a very good idea for bass strings, I wonder if you guys used this one for guitars... what's your experience?

Hmmm, I dislike it to me honest and since I haven't been using other strings then Elixirs, I haven't used the Fast Fret either. It leaves a weird sticky sensation to the strings after putting it on, which I don't like.. I am wondering if Elixir has some similar program Actually, is it a D'Addario program or a Guitar Center program? The way it works is it applies a $5 credit towards any string purchase once a month. Since the strings I normally buy (D'Addario) are slightly less than $5, I don't have to pay anything extra. So, lets say that I want a set of Elixirs, and they normally cost around $15. The String Club applies a $5 credit towards a pack of strings purchase, so I only pay $10.

I'm starting to think on trying the ones made in Argentina. This question is for the guys who don't live in USA, Are there strings made in your country? Have your try them? Are good? -------------------- My lessons

Elixirs are expensive in general, but you pay less on the long run, if you come to think of it Pay more on a pack, but since they last longer, you change them less often than let's say a pack of Ernie Ball strings - so, on the long run, they are cheaper. how much time is the average duration? -------------------- My lessons
