Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

These strings make both guitars sound sonically flawless. If your guitar sound is lacking it's probably not the strings but the amp you're using or the guitar itself. Using with gibson sg tribute. Great sound with all amp models.

Cons

It looks as if the string was crimped in the manufacturing process and was not caught by qc. Three say ernie ball classic custom gauge strings and three do not. These strings are my least workable for humbucker equipped guitar.

Quality

They have great sound, they’re super tough, and last a long ass time !

Nice bright sounding strings, perfect thickness and bendability for my statocaster.

These pure nickel guitar strings have lasted at least twice as long than the usual nickel coated ernie balls strings.

Found this electric but the strings were broken.

Price

For the price you can’t beat them !

For the money, the best all around, longest lasting strings made.

D'addario sells some strings for 20$+ where i live.

Shipping

I needed them urgently and they came the next day!

Packaging/appearance

Always well packed and up to the highest standards.

It showed up on time and everything looked great

Competitiveness

Sure you can spend two to three times as much on the boutique brands but you’re really just throwing your money away.

I tried a few other brands but these feel good.
