I’ve noticed the chemically coated strings in past have unwanted wear on fretboards** A: I tend to get LESS wear on the nut, saddle and frets/fretboard from the XS strings. I have been playing them on my acoustics since 2021, and they work great. The coating is not chemical, but rather thin polymere. **Q: Looking looking for strings for a hollow body 335 style guitar. Daily light for a beginner** A: The half round EHR 310s are a great place to start. Long lasting string,less scratching noise from your fingers on the string. **Q: Do the XS superlights come w colored-coded ball ends?** A: The XS series has color coded ball ends. **Q: The XS packaging shows the color coding of std strings, but seems the actual string pkg are brass/slvr/blk. Is this correct? It's confusing.** A: That is correct. You’ll reference the inside guide was to what strings and which color for each. They’re also bundled in pairs so the low E and the A are together, the D and the G are together, and the B and the high E. No pair has the same color combo (brass with black, or silver with black) etc so if you work with each pair one at a time, I’ve found it the easiest to keep track of what I’m doing.
