G
really super, makes my guitar sounding expensive, tone stays well till now
Gus55 09.12.2021
Some tests say that they get dull after a short while, but I didn't notice it. In the first few days, they are a little too bright for me, but that goes away. I just wipe the strings with a cloth or a sleeve after playing (if I doné forget). My guitar: Alvarez AP70, strings on for a couple of months, not heavy playing

Very good but expect a different sound from Elixirs
Paul736 29.10.2022
We know the strings you use affect your tone, but with the strings in the more expensive bracket you might think the difference would not be great - but it is. Choose the ones you like the sound of on your guitar!

Good?!
Elias.A 06.09.2023
They sound good, a bit dampen. Feel smooth, however, after only two days of use. I noticed that the E and B strings got darker above the first 5 frets which is where I mostly play. I mean. Had it been after a month. I wouldn’t say anything. But two days!!! Like what! And the G strings has pick marks. Or somthing. I don’t know. Veery weird scratches.

If you like string changes
RiccaFerr 17.02.2021
I purchased the item for testing and also because Elixirs were not available at that time.
The major "problem" is that the good sound quality does not take longer to fade away.
I regret this purchase.
Definitely the best strings for me are Elixirs.
