Disappointing tone and lifespan.

These strings were recommended to me as an alternative to some anti rust strings i've been using. I was assured these strings were long lasting and more suitable for the tuning I was using. Alas, this was not the case.

The strings have a very dull sound and make my axe fx and ibanez prestige S sound bad. The bottom strings turned a dark grey a single day after using them and they seem to have lost their tone overnight. The overall tone was slightly muddy when they were new but the gauge is too thick even for extremely low tunings to A and B. There was no give and little life when the strings were new and they died almost straight away. I couldn't recommend these strings to anyone looking for a long lasting set of strings.
