Daddario EJ20

D'Addario = quality

Sound & feel great; last a long time, as always with D'Addario. I use these for more jazz/lounge/mellow music because of the wound G string.

Just what I was looking for

Great set. I've been using 10-52 sets and buying extra wound 3rd strings cause usually the 10-52 sets have non-wound .17 third strings. This set is perfect for harder rock and occasional dropped D tuning because .49 is halfway between the standard .46 which is a bit flimsy in D and .52 which is a bit stiff when tuned to E.

Quality is top-notch as always with Daddario strings - as they are packed in anti corrosion packaging.

good for Eb tuning

hold the tune so well and really smooth

Not lasting long

For me, d'addario's do not perform as well as other strings. I mainly use elixir nanowebs and ernie ball slinky strings. The Elixirs last me from 2 - 6 months, the Ernie Balls sound great for a month or two. But, all strings i've tried from d'addario sound dull and loose intonation after a week or two. I would only recommend these strings if you are comfortable with changing your strings every other week.
