Bright and fast!
I wanted something brighter for my 27" with standard B tuning these are perfect they have a nice bright crunch and the guage is perfect for the longer scale legnth.
Very dull and dark strings
Cannot recommend these strings.
I tried them out of curiosity, and freshly installed they sounded much worse than 1 month old Stringjoy's (which still sounded great). They were lacking high frequencies and I couldn't compensate it enough with EQ'ing. Kinda plastic sound if you will.
I can imagine someone to like this sound, e.g. for jazz, but not me. Both high gain and clean sounded overly dark, like dead strings after 3 months of usage do. It's much easier to roll off treble than to get it out of thin air.
