Pretty good, but a little bit overpriced

Just got this set for my Schecter Hellraiser Hybrid PT-7. As I don't have much experience with 7 strings, I usually buy different sets of strings from different brands featuring different gauges so I can have an idea. I finally had the chance to restring my guitar and tried this set. First, I went for A standard. However, I did not like the tension so much. After having tried this tuning with NYXL 1164, I decided to go back to Bb standard tuning and I must say I have been really enjoying playing my 7 string with this tuning and tension. It's really inspiring to play and these string absolutely sound great. One thing regarding the price tag though: Although these strings are pretty much priced as premium-ish, I think they are not so different than a regular set of strings. They immediately start changing colour and I don't see why these are priced so high. Maybe it's because the Daddario brand's logictics, but it doesn't change the fact that they are a bit overpriced for what they offer. I still recommend anyone who is looking for 7 string guitar strings, especially for lower tunings.

Great Strings for 25,5 Sevenstrings

Like most metal guitarists, I prefer a tight and thick tone at the same time. After years of experimenting with string sets, I have concluded that the NYXL1164 is perfect for my personal tonal taste. Those keep in tune very well and last almost two months for me even during gig seasons. The best choice for B standard of A drop with a 25,5 scale neck.

NYXL FTW

I've been using NYXLs for a couple of years now.

Being a former Elixir player i was stunned by the sound and quality of the NYXLs.

Also being a heavy handed player the increased durability of the NYXl was a blessing.

Pros: Resilient long lasting string

Doesn't corrode easily

Sound quality lasts as the string gets

older and is amazing

CONS: None that I can think of.

Great strings

These strings are very great for 7-string guitars, the tone is crisp and clean and durability is very long. Stays new sounding for extended periods of time.
