2221 : Great Strings!

10 years ago

Well, this string is my choice for a pretty long time. I like the tone that it gives to me and I also fint it easy to play on this strings. But these apply only when the strings are new (mostly 1 or 2 weeks). After some time passes, the tone gets lost and the strings get very rusty (if it is a problem for you). Actually this might be caused by the city I live which is very humid.About strength, I have never seen any of this strings broken (I haven't seen also in 0.09 set) so it makes me feel free while bending wildly.So I purchased 2 packs of these strings. I usually use the skinny top heavy bottom strings, but i figured i would give this a try. I put the strings on and every string went into perfect tune except for the A string which broke. I then opened another pack got the A string put it on and it broke as well. Thinking third times the charm I put the third A string on and yet again it snapped. There is no fault with my guitar because after doing this I put a GHS A string on my guitar and it worked perfectly. Only twice in my ten years of playing have I had a string break from a brand new pack. This is unnacceptable.
