Sound Great, Long Lasting

These strings are the real deal. They offer right, complex tone, without being harsh. They stay in tune, and they hold up well (better than other brands I've tried, here and there). There is some variation in the sets--as there s in every brand of guitar strings--but these are as consistent as anything out there. I've set my Strat up for 11s, and it plays great. Not everybody likes heavier gauge strings, but if your guitar is properly adjusted for them, you won't be working much harder, and you'll get fatter tone.

I will not buy this product ever again.

I normally play in drop tunings. I mean drop D to A. I didn't really think these would be the best for lower but they were pretty terrible. Distorted tone was extremely disappointing. I put these on my schecter c-1 platinum. I know it wasn't the guitar or the amp, a Marshall code 100, but the tone was horrible. Went from stock strings that came with the guitar to garbage. The strings collect finger grime extremely fast even though I wash my hands and take showers regularly. The high e string snapped I was tuning. Not the tuners, Grover 18:1 tuners. Overall bad experience. Go with Ernie Ball even though they are a little pricey they are way better.

    These sound better and last longer than any other strings I've tried. Once in a great while Ia set will be a bit below par, and might feel a bit stiff, but in general, these are great. They're an industry standard for a reason.
