I have had a well intentioned “expert” tell me that EVO frets are hard on nylon strings; that the strings will quickly become frayed. After 2 years of regular play, surely over 200 hours, on a single set of strings on my personal Flamenco guitar I finally changed my strings and see no sign of fraying at all, though there is a bit of wear. I have to suspect that the frets in question by the “expert” must have been poorly surfaced, which wouldn’t have had anything to do with their metallurgy as the EVO wire polishes very well and quite easily.
