Solid sound for gigging musicians

I play 3-4 nights per week for last 30 years, I've tried a few different brands over those years but I keep coming back to these. I HAVE NEVER, EVER, BROKEN ONE OF THESE DURING A GIG! And that's saying something. The 12's are a well balanced set giving the right amount of top/mid/bottom tone for playing all styles without changing instruments, a must for a gigging musician. I get three nights of bright, clear sound and I can stretch to four nights if I'm not feeling overly pushed. After that they will start to loose their 'metalic springiness' but are quite playable if your not too fussy. Well packaged and sealed, I buy 20 sets at a time and the last set is as fresh as the first. All in all these are my go to strings for acoustic and previously electric gigging.

Great strings for Martin 00-15m in D tuning

These are my bread and butter strings for my Martin 00-15m in D tuning (full step down). The sound of the strings perfectly complements the warm complex timber of the guitar and they maintain their sound a decent amount of time for the price. Cleaning the strings after use with Dunlop string cleaner will prolong their life.

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.

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.

Great Strings

I have used these strings for over 20 years and find they are the best quality out there for me.

Long lasting and don't break as often as others.

The 10 pack is also the best value you can get.

Great strings

For a while I have only used D'addarios. They sound great, they last at least as long as their competitors and they are among the cheapest. The multipacks are excellent value. Always worth adding some sets to an order
