Not what I expected
Kevin L 13.10.2022
The packaging is exceptional and well protected. Upon opening the strings, they have a great feel to them. I was super excited to put them on and try them.
Issue number one. They are a heavy string and I had to fully tighten my truss rod against their pull. I did not like this so much. The action changed drastically from my previous strings which were D'Addarios.
Issue number two. After the adjustments were made, the tuning was very difficult.
Issue three. After getting the guitar as close as possible to being in tune, after a few minutes of playing and tuning the high A string, it broke. Now, I've broken a few high G strings before, but never an A string. I removed the strings and restrung the guitar with Pyramids. MUCH BETTER. I really don't like these strings, however, I use Ernie Balls on my E guitar with no problems.
Problem four...they sound terrible
The plus is the feel. They felt great. Very smooth and responsive, however, they are very stiff.

Sound great, but not for long.

I got about a week of "new string tone and feel" out of these strings before the started to dull down with moderate playing. They sound great initially but they just don't last. Which isn't good considering re-stringing a 12-string guitar is pretty tedious!

Good for the money

These strings are not bad. I probably have had them on far too long, but even the octave G has not broken yet. Sound wise, I would say they lack a bit of definition, although that may be my guitar (Washburn sce 10),or more likely my playing. First replacement set I have had so I will try something else next, but would go back to them. They have lasted ages.
