They're RotoSounds

I mean, they're objectively the best, am I wrong?

Great strings, great price

Way back when, in the 1970's when I first started to play guitar, Rotosound were THE string to use. All the pros used them, so they were like an aspiration purchase. (I remember Mike Rutherford of Genesis used Rotosound strings on all his guitars and advertised as such)

The strings are still great and have a lovely ring to them and sustain. I use them on my Strat and they suit the guitar fine. I've NEVER had a breakage using them live or in rehearsal and so find them very reliable, and that matters if you play out a lot!

So, therefore not only do they sound great, I have great confidence in their durability and longevity. The free top string is a bonus if you are a hard hitter and snap them, but I've never had one snap!

All in all they are great and I would recommend anyone to get a set and use them, I can promise you will be surprised by the quality and question why you hadn't used them before.

good ones

good strings. cheap ones and nothing to say more. but have great feature of additional 1st string. and keep in mind this is super light ones so 1st sting will be very handy to have additional one

Great strings

Its my first time to install and use Rotosound R9 on my Fender Stratocaster, and I can't praise them highly enough. They sound way much better than D'dario, Fender and other strings i had used before. Also they are cheaper and last just as long as more expensive brands.

Great strings - used them for years

Not much to say really - just very happy. No breakages and stay in tune for ages.

Vintage Strings for vintage sounds - but not for high gain

I am trying various brands at the moment and the Rotosound are special ones.

I will not stay playing Rotosound strings on all my guitars, but I will use them for my “old school” sounding vintage guitar.

I think they are perfect for classic rock. For modern stuff they are sounding a bit muddy in my opinion.
