Perfectly balancet and playable

MB2 17.10.2019

Strings that make a 60EUR strat copy sound like it's worth a 1000 EUR.
I currently have these strings on my 60EUR strat copy and original Fender bullets on my original Fender stratocaster. - These strings make a low budget guitar sounding better than an original.
Creamy yet clear tones, great playability. Great for bending - stays in tune very long time.

Funny strings!

Anonymous 28.02.2014

I had so much fun using these strings! I was bending every note i played, and they just wouldn't go out of tune! They sound great and they last really long.

Great vintage smooth sound

Churu 03.07.2025

I wanted to have a more vintage sound on my G&L Legacy and also to reduce some of the high end of the guitar. These strings successfully made it, with the addition and unexpected feature that they actually feel more "soft" to be played, they are not harsh right after the first install, and they also last really long! They are now my standard strings.
