Harley Benton Valuestrings EL 9-42 Reviews

exellant value

I have always been very dubious about cheap value strings. but having took the plunge and bout some to test from another online retailer with good results, albeit at a higher price of £2.75 a set. i took the plunge on these and am i pleased i did i cant tell the difference between these and ernie balls slinkys, but my wallet sure can tell the difference.

definite no brainer, 5-6 sets of strings for the price of 1 set of slinkys

>1€ strings?

What can you want more fore a set of strings so cheap as this? They sound ok. They last ok. And they cust less than 1€. Make sure to have some packs of this in your bag for any situation. Also check on harley benton coated value strings wich are cheap and awsome. Recomended.

Good news for the musician on a budget

These strings are incredibly well-priced and -certainly- the built quality is not 5 times worse than your average string set from a better known maker. I bought a few sets of these Harley Benton strings and I could not find a dead string in any of the sets. That is a credit to their quality. Yes, the tone was unremarkable but decent enough for most situations and the tone was the same in every set.

I suspect they are not going to be too kind on the frets but changing strings regularly generally helps extending fret life so even if they are tough the guitar player on a budget will be able to afford having them changed fairly often.

All in all, really outstanding value for money.

ok but no more

Fairly ok strings, no problems at all, but no high quality strings. For the price though they are a bargin, especially if you are unsure of what gague you'd like. Get a few of these to try out.

Another set of good strings

Great great product go an by them if yoru order anything you may as well try them out as they are great last a long time and sound really great and bright i use these on nearly all my electrics now great for sliding up and down on !!

great price for great strings

just as good as any strings ive used but for a fraction of the cost would recommend to anyone

Harley Benton Valuestrings 009

A pleasant surprise for a set of strings that are only 99 cent! You really are paying for the brand when it comes to certain more expensive sets, I've tried many different types and these really aren't the worst, at least to my fingers. They 'break-in' quite quickly and although they retain moisture a little easier than most, a quick, regular wipe should suffice in keeping them in good order. Good tone as well.

Electric Guitar Strings 9 Gauge

I have being using these Harley Benton Value strings 09 & 10 gauge for years and find they are great value for money. The strings are handy if your changing guitars like me and setting up action & neck alignment where you don't have to worry about removing strings after little use, ideal for gigging / practicing & tone is not bad for the cost they are good value.

Good quality

They are very good quality. They don't break too easily. They are very light though. Easy to play and very easy to bend. For the price you won't find any better strings.

Great value

I found the strings great value,they are as good, as bigger named brands from my experance.The sound from them, was certainly up to pair,and they are also durable

Outstanding value

These are not the greatest strings in the world. There are better strings out there. However, there is nothing wrong with them at all. They sound pretty good and hold their tuning well. And then just look what you paid for them. Bargain!!

good value

For roughly 80p a set you can't go wrong. 'They' say you should change your strings every two weeks and before every gig/recording session anyway, if your paying £5/6 for a set that will get very expensive.

I have used most of the other famous brands of strings and can't tell a massive difference, strings sound best, or 'brightest' new anyway, and at this price you can afford to have the new sound more often.

The only minor criticism i have is that they were a little bit 'gunky/grimey', but i have had other, much more expensive strings that suffered from the same problem.

I've played on bad strings, the ones that feel like they're cutting the fleshy parts of your fingers, death by a thousand subtle/implied cuts; but these are not them. They are good quality and playable, for the price you cant go wrong.

Good quality and good tone

I was not expecting too much from these strings at the price I paid - but was surprised at how well they sounded and held there tune after a little bit of stretching. Maybe not good enough for a professional, but good enough for the rest of us. Great value.

Incredible value

As with the other strings in the Valuestrings range, these offer incredible value for money. I found it cheaper to buy whole sets of these than to get single top E strings for possible onstage breakages. You can't go wrong at this price.

These Strings are almost FREE!! :)

I thought this was an error when I saw the price of these strings! Less than £1/1Euro for a full set of guitar strings? AMAZING!

They are pretty good quality too - not the very best tone or longest lasting - but at this price you really can't go wrong.

Especially if (like me) you have WAY too many guitars, restinging can be an expensive business - not any more!! :)

Very happy with these!

Harley Benton Valuestrings 009

Best quality-price ecuation on the market! They behave like new strings at least a week, but they are so cheap that you can afford to change them daily. They are ideal stuff for rehearsal, when the sweat of the fingers is inevitable and quickly runs out the initial quality of the strings.

Value strings - the name says it all.

Sturdy and reliable strings representing great value for money. Shipping was fast, accurate with good packaging for protection. I will definitely be back for more - no point looking elsewhere again.

great value!

I buy these strings for a couple of reasons. My grandson uses them on his harley benton guitars, and he is more than happy with them. I keep a few packets as standby for breakages on gigs, but otherwise use more expensive sets on my strat. I find the strings are perfectly fine, bright, but have noticed they can break when pre-stretching them in, this has happened a couple of time with me...so now Im more careful. otherwise, good value set.

cheap strings which are brilliant in the emergency situation, buy and keep them in the bottom of your guitar bag like I do.
