Review: Good strings, produces significant improvement in low end guitars - Good strings, Basses are bright, trebles produce a more round tone, very good balance, have seen these strings being played for more than 8 months without much loss in the sound quality. Remember the "Hard" word though :-) Update on 17 Jul 2016: I bought these again. They are great for practice, lasts very long and retains the good sound almost till the end. Update 4 Aug 2021: bought a few set over the last 5 years. Still using this. Recently bought from seller ' Acoustic World' in a very reasonable pricing. Authentic product as checked from D'addario play real website. This strings sound better than the stock Savarez on my Cordoba C5 imho, I know it will last much much longer and you won't need to tune the guitar everytime you sit to practice. EJ46 retains the tuning longer. Overall my favourite strings for practice. I love the sound. Anything below this will probably let you and your guitar down.
Review: Great strings and customers care. - Wow, these strings are amazing. I am not pro guitar player but I am sensitive for good quality. Conntact with seller is also full of taking care. Before I used only savarez strings but exacly these d'adario strings are very good.
