Great review, exactly how I'd rate them. Thing is, I like my strings to last really long and feel smooth, so I'm stuck on Elixirs.
The B is hard to fit on most bridges because it is tapered. They should really fix that problem. Even on my top-loading Ibanez bridge it was a bear to tug through.
The steel texture is also very rough, I agree. They really tear up your fingers when sliding, but you get used to it. I currently have a set on my fretless 4, and the mwah I get combined with the polyurethane on the neck is superb.
I'd rate them as a 4.5 out of 5, simply because I can't get used to the texture and the fact that they die. What the world needs is coated steel strings. I don't care how much they cost, I need a set.
