Pros

They are brighter than phosphor bronzer but warmer than the 80/20. I use them on a solid wood 12 fret parlour and they sound and feel amazing.

The ‘light’ gauge is not so heavy that it chokes the guitar out but heavy enough for a thicker sound! Every other string brand does as it says on the packet.

The richness of bronze with the high end of nickel produce something very close to the sound i want. They bring out the tonal quality of the guitar. Changed the sound and playability of my guitar.

Cons

The flimsy 1st/2nd strings are really way too pliant for playing artificial harmonics on. Single plucked note sustain seems fine, but when hammering on, the notes simply die, rather than ringing.

Quality

I bought 2 other sets before this but didn't like them so am really pleased with these.

Having tried numerous makes in the past few years i now only use d'addario as quality and sound are both excellent.

Very happy with the quality of the strings, the feel and the sound.

If you have a mahogany/spruce guitar these would be my first choice along with the monel strings, they bring out more of the fundamentals.

Competitiveness

Much better sound than the cheaper ones i bought before.
