Affordable 👌 Not Cheap...

I have bought these particular brand set of stings. Installed them on to my old acoustic guitar. It's been 2 years of playing with it now the sound still good and the strings not even breaking at all. 🤟

Excellent Value

The alloy used in these strings sound different than 70/30, but not in a bad way. They also have a slightly different appearance color-wise. I'm very happy with them, particularly because I change strings 1-2 times weekly.

Great strings

I’ve been using these for ages now and won’t be changing.

They sound great and stay in tune and last just as long as anything else I’ve used before.

Cheap but reliable

I bought these as spares for an acoustic guitar I got my daughter for her birthday in case she started breaking strings left right and center. I bought 2 packs and still haven't haven't had to change the stock srings that came on the (Harley Benton)guitar

Decent strings for this price.

Pretty good acoustic strings, the sound is bright and pleasant. No regrets buying these.

Simply fantastic, very bright indeed

These work excellently, great feel, great tuning stability, good tension, they don't feel cheap and they don't play cheap, they are simply a very good string regardless of price.

I'll never use else now, it would be pointless.

Just buy them.

Probably the best acoustic strings I have used, good sound and long lasting. No complaints.

They are OK

Cheap strings, don't feel bad, but not as good as elixirs that I normally use. But hey, they work

ALL OK!

Have you ever seen cheaper stuns? Personally, I don’t. These strings are more than enough to play and learn.

The best strings I have ever used

I am a full time gigging singer and guitarist and i have spent years trying to find the 'perfect' string. The upshot is, that doesn't exist. However, there are strings that are pure snake oil and strings that are ok for the price and others that are exceptional for the price. The latter is where these Harley Benton strings fit. I have a very percussive style so i will always break strings from any manufacturer. Experience has show me that and I don't mind breaking the odd string as I replace them all once a week anyway. Usually, all strings corrode badly (often after one gig) and they completely lose their tone. These strings do not corrode at all (despite being uncoated) and I truley don't know what they are made out of for them to be this way as any other 80/20 bronxe string for me corrodes and dies toanlly after just one gig. These don't. They stay in perfect condition and hold their tone long enough for me to re-string the following week. I recently tried a set of strings that cost over £20 from a leadining manufacturer. They last two gigs then corroded and I broke 2 on the 3rd gig. I have tried them all and nothing compares to these and considering they are the cheapest (buying in bulk of 24 makes these strings work out to 22p per string) I cannot get my head around it! Yes, I am a heavy percussive player but I didn't expect the cheapest to be the best. This is after 8 years of research.

Use for Busking ( well I did before COVID)

USEFULL CHEAP ALTERNATIVE to over priced strings in general.

Why pay more?

I have been using these strings for all my acoustic guitars for a few years now. And I will keep using them.

Now of course they do not sound as good or last as long as a pack of Ernie Balls or Elixirs. But the thing is, they cost literally about 10x less than a pack of Elixirs. And if I have to choose whether I get to have 1 pack of good strings or 10 packs of ok strings, the choice for me is obvious. As a musician I like always having spare strings and not having to worry when i break one.

If you are a musician with a budget, get these. Nobody but you will know or tell the difference.

Pros:

Price

Sound decent

Cons:

Not as good as more expensive strings

Very good strings!

These strings are great, i use them on my yamaha acoustic and the sound just as good as the more expensive strings i have used, they actualy sound better since you can change them ofter to always have a fresh clean sound. I ordered 5 packs and it costs less than one pack of "premium" strings i also tried the electric strings and they are also great.

Well worth the money

For a cost effective alternative for home practicing and rehearsing these make perfect sense. I usually use D'Addario but these sound as good on initial playing. Long term I can't comment on tone or longevity as yet but even if they last 2 weeks, for the money they make perfect sense
