Plenty of 6 string reviews, but any AC 110/210/211 12 string reviews out here?

I've used them and they were excellent .. but the most expensive set of strings I've ever bought.

Soft feel, beautifully made with a warm rich tone. Very nice.

I have them on my F-512. Wonderful tone and balance.

Thanks for responding. Seems about the cheapest I can find them is at about $32/shipped. Going to try the D’Addario nickel-bronze first. I like them on my pre-War 000-18 and 0-17, but the TI’s definitely have my interest. I guess I just have expensive taste.

I've used D'Addario Nickel Bronze on my maple Guild F-412 and thought they were great too ... but that's a 'string-friendly' guitar and tends to sound good with almost any brand or type!

If you're looking for a warm sounding 12-string set I suggest GHS Silk & Bronze are certainly worth trying - different to Plectrums, much more like an ordinary set of PB's in feel and tone .. only warmer.
