My go to strings for my acoustic
First of all i am by no means an expert on strings .....as i have tried not many besides the EJ16's. Never had to.
But that said.......i have never had one broken on me while playing. Even though i bend strings regularly.
As it comes to tuning i am a real tuning freak, before playing i tune each string to the exact by using a digital tuner. And re-check regularly during practice.
Most of the time the strings stay in tune for 2 days straight, i guess this also depends on the guitar but still a lot has to do with the quality of the strings.
I have very acidic sweat....and after every couple of weeks these strings tend to loose its shine. After 4 weeks, the tone yet in tune becomes a little dull, and i have
to replace them with new ones.
After restringing the strings, it usually take an hour of playing for them to settle....and after a day of being on the guitar they keep consistently in tune with only minor fluctuations (halfway a half step max).
Buying them in these 10 packs...seems to be the cheapest deal. And i like the idea of having enough packs in reserve....to never run out of them.

Great value for the money
I am not committed to one brand of string, I use Martins, Ernie Ball, DR strings and they are all sounding fine to me. The D'addario are just sounding as good as the aforementioned strings, but on plus side I like the packaging (set of 3, set of 10) which provides a real good value for the money.

I love the 10-pack: great for the more pro-ish musician
D'Addario just does what they do best, which is making good and reliable strings.
I have been using D'Addario for all my basses and guitars, and this set was a nice addition to the tonal possibilities of the instruments.

A good buy
I'm a music teacher and so dealing with broken strings is practically a daily occurrence. I got these so when a string goes we can just get back to the lesson within a few minutes. Granted I now have 10 incomplete sets of strings but I have happy students so I see it as a win-win situation!
The strings are good quality and have a good sound. Not much else to say really. They're strings!

Good for it?s price
I am using daddario strings for 8 years now, and 5 on acoustic. I do 2-4 acoustic gigs a week so I change my strings preaty offten. I love that they come in the pack of 10 so I don?t have to buy 10 pack seperatly. The sound is good as any daddario strings

great, long-lasting
i love these strings -- been using them for 4 / 5 years now exclusively. sound great when fingerpicking, also nice for more aggressive playing.
also, they last for ages -- i quite like how they sound once they've been worn-in a bit, so i can go months without changing them.

Good strings, best value for money
I am using D'addario EJ16 since about 5 years on different acoustic guitars, and I am as happy as on the first day.
These strings have a great sound which lasts a very long time. Although my strumming is really hard and i play up to 5h a day (without amplifier) their sound lasts up to a couple of weeks.
Their color system to differentiate the strings is pretty simple and easy to get used to.
Also D'addario has a high standard on quality - so do these stings.
With the 10P packet you get the best value for money. I would never go back to other companies or strings.
