Aurora Strings NITRO.ORG.E9-42 Premium Nickel Plated Electric Guitar Strings, Light

I got these so I can see my strings in low light because my vision is less than perfect. I was impressed by the quality and sound. The color does wear off in time where you pick, but this is expected and does not change the sound as far as I can tell.I love the way the color really sets off a guitar. Kind of gives it a custom look. I will use these again for sure. I was using Dr. Neon also but see no difference in quality. I got this brand becausr Dr. was out of a color I wanted in this gauge. I will continue to use these strings.

Aurora Electric Guitar Strings 9 Gauge BlueMade in the USA, little hard to find for overall selection but the color seems more durable than DR Handmade strings with the color shades. The Aurora tone is great but more like Elixirs then the DR's Handmade (and so far, last like handmade or about 15 minutes if you touch them) but otherwise which sound more like first hour of playing in-coated D Addario restrings.DR Handmade-Very nice percussive attack with a well-defined middle register sibilance and voice. Delicate color coating; so delicate corrosion benefit.Aurora- Very well balanced and otherwise sound more like elite coated strings like Elixir sets.Guitar pickups want magnetic alloys so not sure how much of those acoustic characteristic transfer in electrical terms.Aurora -The color is highly dependent on the unwound strings for a truly anodized or iridescent sheen effect. Buying more, and love the color, but would like more variety. Purple is very cool!DR Handmade – The color is very uniform and looks fantastic for display instruments, just don’t use them so the unique look is preserved. NO iridescent but still cool, Red and White really pop for some reason. Pink is also loud but difficult to distinguish from the Red from a distance. The Lime green is totally neon and awesome.Aurora - Will continue to buy for rehearsal and performance instruments.DR Handmade- Will buy for display instruments only. The price is about the same on average.

These strings sound good, but the color wasnt as bright as I had hoped, and wore off in a couple of days. Big waste of money.

Color lasted one session, but they still sound sweet.

I bought the black strings to go with a black guitar. Red , Blue and Green.....I guess they would look alright if they matched the guitar color. (what will they think of next, flag colors, where they change color on the same string?) I haven't put these on my guitar yet to know if they sound as good as they look, but they look well made, not just painted on, like the color would peel off over time. My hat's off to Aurora for meeting the needs of the population with a quality product. The options for further product lines are definitely limited to the imagination of the consumers. (If Aurora's R&D dept. listens to the requests)

Perfect strings, they have lasted for me a few months, and I pretty much play a few hours a day. The blue color wore off a little after a few days, but that's okay, the strings are still perfect, and it didn't dye my hand blue, like my last strings I had.

I have been playing off and on for years. Play acoustic, 6 and 12 string and have 2 electrics. I first bought the coated strings for the look. The color does tend to wear some where the pick hits. I have tried other brand and these are by far the best sounding, feeling and the longest lasting strings I have found. They are on all of my guitars now...

Absolutely the best strings I've put on any of my guitars. Easy bends, perfect sounds, and strength to boot. Love them. Will be purchasing more in the future.
