Music Background: Pro musician
I have been using these strings for years on my electrics. I would recommend these over the more expensive Elixirs. In my experience they are just as good, and probably better. Just use something like... read more [+] Fast Fret after you play, and these strings will last as long as the more expensive ones, and in all the years I have been using these strings I have never had a single string break!!!! Give'em a try. You won't regret it! close [-]

Great strings

Music Background: Amateur musician, 21 years. Home recording.

While they aren't... read more [+] as bright as the Fender strings, they definitely aren't dull. I would describe the sound as a mid-boosted mellow sound. Plenty of low end but not too much, and the highs come through well but aren't shrill. They sustain well and hold tuning well. Great for warm dirty tones, but especially nice for a clean sound. close [-]
