Anyone know of any better toned strings than Blue Steel (meidum guage)?
Don't tell me Martin, or D'Addario becuase I don't like, adn you guys can go to hell if you think those are better

martin strings are horrible, they just are, I dont care for d'addarios but some people do. I swear by elixirs, thats all Ill ever use. I prefer lights but go with mediums if you dont like lights. And get nanowebs not the polywebs.
and yeah, why did that take so long to get mentioned? wtf

yeah after jayme's reccomendation i tried out some of the nanowebs. I got the light-mediums and they are awesome. They sound a hell of a lot better than the polyweb.
