Love these strings
Used DR Extras in a covers band gigging 100+ times a year and only need to change strings maybe 3 times!
They're not quite as bright as a brand new set of steelwounds. I'd describe them as being similar to a set of nickelwound strings which have done one or two gigs - a nice crunchy tone without a harsh top end.
They stay sounding like that for ages and often the only reason for changing is cosmetic as the coloured coating shows wear as time passes and can look a bit unsightly. If you're a pick player, you'll see the coating disappear quickly.
Some of the coated DR strings have a new K3 Dragon Skin coating which I really dislike as I find any excessive sliding on the strings soon sets the fingers burning so I've recently had to abandon these.
