Incredible!!!

i recently bought a used acoustic guitar. i knew that it was a good guitar because i have played the same model in store before. but when i played this one it just didn't sound right. so i replaced the strings with these strings and WOW! what a difference! it sparkles and really brings out the mids and highs and gives an amazing tone to the guitar! i will never go back to my old strings again.

Terrible twangy steel instrument sounding

Man, I thought for sure I couldn't go wrong with Ernie balls as that's what I've used on my electrics for 10+ years but these sound terrible. They turned my lovely sounding acoustic into a twangy, metallic sounding instrument. Something maybe good for southern music, I'm not sure, but nothing I'm into playing. They are also very sensitive to bridge/pick noise.

    Sometimes I will try a different string on a recommendation, but I always come right back to these. The sound, the feel, and the durability never disappoint.

    Very smooth and rich sound. Low lows and crisp, clear highs. I won't buy any other acoustic strings. I've tried several other brands and NONE compare. I am extremely hard on these strings and have only managed to break one after about 2 months of non-stop play.

  • I would buy this product again

    Got these strings as apart of an experiment. I wanted to find the right strings for the way I play (I do a lot of strumming and some finger style), and these fit perfectly. The way they sound make the guitar sound like it's already been recorded. They're incredibly crisp and bright, but can be warm and soothing as well
