Great for the Price
Mr Greggles 27.07.2023
I've rated these on their value for money. These are good strings, not the best but not too far away. If D'Addarios are good, these are less than half the price but almost as good.

I use the HB Value strings when I'm doing mods, just to try the modded guitar out. They are half the price of these and adequate for that use. These are strings I would put once I knew the mod was fine. Great for practice and play, but I'd change them to Ernie Ball's for recording or Elixirs, if I knew the guitar would spend a lot of time on the rack between sessions. The rest of the time these are perfectly fine, and save money.

Never thought it would do the job. This pack needs to be taken seriously! Excellent alternative to any expensive strings brand. Especially for everyone that needs to change the strings very often!

More than just good value for money
GummiR 06.05.2024
I can't hear any difference between these HB strings and more expensive strings I have. And I'm not the only one that has tried to hear a difference... So we have very good value for money.

Great strings!
Lauri P. 17.06.2024
Have been using standard ernie ball strings for years and I wanted to compare these ones with them. At first glance I don't hear any difference. Feels the same. Maybe I'll start to use these instead!

excellent value for money

I usually use a named brand. These are about 2-3 euros cheaper per pack, hold tune and feel just as good.

Great strings
Stu-SAFC 23.08.2024
Outstanding strings for the price and I've not used and 'name brand' strings in a few years now! Even with the shipping to the UK it still saves lots of money when buying 20 or 30 sets at a time.
