fantastic value great strings
Andrew D. 29.05.2013
Ive been using these string for a few years now and have been really impressed I originally brought them when I was first learning the guitar after trying lots of different strings id read that these would be soft on the finger ends they didn't disappoint, for a beginner they are just what you need has they are really kind on the fingers (thats the silk) tone wise and playability are also excellent and price wise compared to other major brands is unmatchable. if you have tried other silk and steel strings try these and save your self a lot of cash

Nice sound but...
Fats 17.04.2014
These strings have a nice sound but are not durable particular the wiring around the G string core breaks quickly at each point where it touches a fret when you play.
I play about 1 hour per day and the strings need to be replaced preferably every week; at latest every forthnight

These Silk & Steel strings from Pyramid are really great. I work a lot an older guitars and stringing them up is sometimes a gamble not knowing if the neck will live up to it. With these I never had a problem and the sound is as the name Silk & Steel. What more can you ask for. Great Strings

Made to save your fingers
Rurouni 17.12.2015
Bought these because of my weak fingers. Never got used to the string tension of an acoustic guitar in standard tunning.

Pros: They make a huge difference when playing. My fingers don't hurt after playing more than a hour and you don't lose much of the sound and tone.

Cons: They didn't last as much as my other sets but then again how can you even compare them.
You do lose some tone when the string tension drops.
You might get string buzz in the E string.

I am very fond of these when I practice a lot. I can last longer and they feel way softer than your average steel strings

Pyramid 305/100 Silk & Steel
MDFreitas 25.09.2019
Comprei recentemente uma nova guitarra, mais concretamente HB Custom Line King-CE VS, troquei as cordas originais por estas "Pyramid 305/100 Silk & Steel", a diferença foi notoriamente positiva. O som ficou mais encorpado e menos metálico. É uma boa compra a um preço sugestivo! Recomendo!

The price is good compared with other brands of silk and steel strings. The strings have a sweet sound on my not-very-expensive guitar. It took about a day for them to acquire their optimum tone and the sweetness decays gradually over time, with a rasping sound starting to appear on the two upper strings. But this is a problem for all unwound strings.

Reasonably priced good sounding strings.
Felix4793 11.02.2018
These are good for the price. I think they are similar to the Galli version but a bit cheaper. I used them on a Mahogany folk-style guitar and it was a very sweet sound. Finger picking is nice on these strings as they feel softer than bronze folk strings. Not as loud though- so for strumming a bronze 80/20 would be my preference. The lower tension of the silk and steel strings means a truss rod adjustment may be necessary.

Underated strings
SimonDK 13.08.2020
I know these are cheap strings, but I think they sound pretty good on my Recording King 000-guitar. The sound is vintage and a bit thin, but I like it.
