Optima 24K Gold Plated 2028 CL Electric Guitar Strings 9-46

Tried the newly found gold plated strings that Brian May uses and put them on my wife's PRS and wow, I couldn't put it down. Smooth to the touch, but something about the plain strings I fell in love with. They were easy to grip for bending but slick to slide and finger on. Plugged in they sounded a little brittle and treblely at first, but that went away after playing a couple of days. The great thing about gold plating is that they will not tarnish from "acid fingers" or atmospheric corrosion for a long time. I read where people have had them on for 4 to 8 years and still sound new. I'll be back to update my review then. Love the feel, nothing like nickle plating or true nickle wound. You'll know what I'm saying after you try them. Well worth the extra cost if you don't have to change your strings all the time to get the fresh new string sound.

What are the poors doing right now? Who cares, but I can tell you what their not doing… and that’s playing with 24K gold strings on their guitars.
These strings give my PRS silver sky in Midnight Rose that John Mayer sound that even john Mayer strives to achieve… paired with my silver Klon and a little bit of verb and a vintage Gibson Skylark tube Amp.. who says money can’t buy happiness.. whomever said that must not have had enough money to buy all the right gear

I like the gold strings, they do have a different sound i like.
