Pyramid Electric Strings 010-046 Reviews

Low-priced good strings

Ever wonder if strings that cost twice the price sound twice as good? I've been playing guitar for 18 years and during that time I played many different brands. I've come over some manufacturers strings that I've put on the guitar and taken off almost immediately. But Pyramid?

Pyramid makes one of the top brand strings and I can't imagine in my head that for these cheaper version strings they have some cheaper and low-quality work order to make them sound like cheap string. They certainly sound good and they feel good. Yes, there are better strings, but if you are budged dependent, then these strings are really a good choice.

I've put them on several electrics and the idea to even buy these was, that I own many guitars and I also build them. And frequent changing for experiments of the high-priced strings did not seem wise. The difference of the sound is really cosmetical and it seems more to be "feel" for the player himself/herself. I really can't recognize the strings sound from any recording, to be honest. And the feel is just fine. I personally like played-in strings, say half a week old guitar strings. And on some guitars after some time I can't tell what exact brand are they. But by first brand-new feel might be slightly better for different strings.

Amazing strings!

When I looked at the price of these strings I didn't expect anything. To be honest I chose them because I needed some cheap strings to try out some different settings on an old guitar. I planned to use them while finding a well-sounding set-up, then throw them away and use better ones. And I was totally wrong.

The strings sound remarkably balanced, even for a long time. They tend to last long. In my opinion they feel good and I have enjoyed playing them. I will totally go on using them and can recommend them to everyone who is looking for relatively cheap, but well-sounding strings.

Good cheap strings

I tend to use these strings when doing setups or mucking about with the guitars. They sound good, are fairly durable and don't cost a lot of money. I've used them on gigs and they well made. Some really cheap strings are horrible to play and rust very quickly, these ones don't.

Pyramid

I opted these strings for my Telecaster. Having played Daddarios before i was hoping to get the same quality for a cheaper price. The strings look very good out of the box and sound quite well. They produce a nice smooth feeling under my fingertips and have shimmering hights which i like a lot. Although the pyramids are identical to the Daddarios in means of diameter they produce a different feeling when bending. The string feels sort of springy and elastic and bending appears to come easier. The Daddarios appear to be way more stiff.

The reason will not keep using these strings in the future is that they keep getting out of tune. I don't know wether this set of strings is an exception but i had to tune the guitar a lot after every song i played.

010 set of quality

This set of strings is very well balanced, pure nickel, warm and powerful sound, goes well with a Strat with a maple neck, and last a lot are very pleasant to the touch, recommended, then the price is its great value.

My FAVEs

PYRAMID strings are my personal Favorite Strings for ALL instruments...I use them on acoustic guitar, electric guitar and bass guitar. These are, IMHO, the most amazing price/quality relationship to be had in the string department. Great sounding, long lasting (for me), and great feeling.

These were the strings-of-choice for years on Alembic instruments, and are still considered by not a few, to be a kind of Holy Grail of the guitar string.

So take the Dr.'s advice...and get yer Cheops Chops vibrating with the one and only PYRAMID STRINGS...do it 2day ! They REALLY do sound GOOD.

Highly recommend!

I was an Ernie Ball user for a long time. Two years ago i tested the pyramid strings. Now thea are my favourite strings on strat and tele. Great playability and durability for the price! Highly recommend!

Very good quality for the money

I am playing these strings for about 5 years and I have to say that I really like them mostly because of their long durability and good sound. I haven't been disappointed by them yet.

Good overall.

Maybe not the best string set I've ever played with but good in general. They last a good amount of time although they are not as strong as I would like them to be. Good price.

Amazing not just for the price

Having tried strings from all the major brands and some not so major, these stand out as having a winning combo of tone, feel, and durability. They have a very smooth feel to the touch, and have a warm sound to match (not muddy, just full). The tone seems to stay fresh for a good long while (ymmv) but perhaps what i'm most impressed with is the tuning stability. Despite plenty of whammy abuse I can leave my guitar tuners untouched a week at a time with these. Will definitely be using these regularly.
