perfect strings

Ole_13 15.01.2020

I always use this amazing strings for my 7-string Ibanez. They last long enough - the durability can be 1-3 months depends on how well you treat them in terms of using any additional cleaning stuff. Moreover, the first two strings never break!

The sound is great and fits my needs!

I use the same type for my 6-string e-guitar as well(6-string set of course).

I 100% recommend this string set

The moment I started playing on these strings I was struck by how different they are from many of the strings I've used in the past.

The sound in itself is actually quite different from your regular strings. It's hard to describe, but there is something similar to a Contrabass Clarinet in the sound wave, sort of like a square wave.

Also, I felt that the tone is very stable and responds well to hard playing.

Another detail is that when the strings were new, they were a bit demanding on the finger skin. I wasn't sliding overly much, initially. You can really feel that the strings are not of regular material.

Though the strings don't stay new for very long, they continue to work for quite some time. They don't get unplayable, but they do get miscolored quite quickly, which I could imagine some people would not appreciate.

Though I'm not sure the sound of the strings is for everyone, I do think they are worth a try, just out of how unusual they are. I might not use them for everything myself, but I definitely do want to use them for some of my projects. And, particularly for distorted guitars.

Great alternative

I've been forced to look for alternatives to nickel strings because of an allergy and those cobalt Ernie Ball never let me down. They feel slightly softer then regular string, great to play and they usually last me up to 5 months.

Great tone!

Really happy with these strings. The definition and action is unmatched. Tried couple of other manufactures and products.
I would say that 10-56 is the golden middle. And cobalt is smthing that is probably very addictive.
