Rotosound R10 3-stars Reviews

10-46 Too much tension for me

In 10-46 the strings seem tight, and I'm having tuning issues. I'm going back to Ernie Ball slinkies.

I have a feeling that the Rotosounds may be really good in 9-42, which I usually find too light in E.Ball.

Sound good, but fragile

The strings are nickel-coated steel, and they sound quite good and mellow when they are new.

However, the quality of the latest production is questionable. The set comes with an extra high-E string, and it was needed straight away. The high-E string installed first broke during the procedure of intonating the guitar, and it was not due to the bridge, nut or tuning machine - the string broke in the middle, somewhere around the forth fret.

Also, the strings corrode quite heavily in comparison to some other I have used.

When I used this strings previously, over a year ago, they used to be of a better quality, so it may be that I was unlucky just with the latest set.
