Labella Vapour Shield strings

[GreeneKing]

I did a search and couldn't find any comment. Has anyone tried them?

I received my GMR with a 40 to 118 set fitted. I really like them, nice feel to them and they are like normal rather than coated strings that I'm not keen on. They are expensive but if they last 5x longer as quoted I'll be both surprised and happy.

A fair bit of sales banter in there.

I'd be interested to try them. Elixir strings were a revelation for me and I can make a set last nearly a year. They suit me down to the ground. I was sure that Gore who make the coating had patented the process of coating the string once it has been wound so other competitors had to coat theirs then wrap the string. Maybe that's not true as these sound like a similar process.

I have also tried coated strings by Roto, D'addario and Warwick and none were a patch on the Elixirs, so I presumed it was due to the patented process.

Thomastik, Optima RBs or La Bella Low Tension flats are all roundcore flatwounds.
