First set of light strings I ever bought. Really impressed. Gonna try on a few other guitars as strings are changed. Happy with them.

After watching several YouTube videos I thought I might try some 7s. Well the 7 broke within 2 weeks but not while I was playing like you might think. Just picked up guitar to play and it had broke. So I don’t know I just think that 7s are a little fragile. Maybe just tune down a step.

Feels right. Tried other brands, but these got it right both highs & lows. Feels freer & more stable at same time. Important: they stay in tune & never broke one (and I do double bends regularly).

I was really unsure when I tried these. I usually use a 10 guage so I didnt know whaqt to expext from 8s. These have GREAT TONE! I use them now on both my strat and LP. I would describe the tone as having a slight texas twang and neither to thin or heavy. The feel is smoooth and easily playable. They also stay in tune very well.

Agree with what everyone has said here - warm tone, clear notes, easy bends, light on touch, etc. The biggest difference to me that separates from the ernie ball's has been the reverend's ability to hold their notes and stay in tune without pitchy note fluctuations.I recently made the switch on my Les Paul from 10's to 8's. I started down this path looking for ability to add more vibrato to my playing, in addition to hearing BB King responding to Billy Gibbons- "why you working so hard". I had my Les Paul reset as I like low action specifically for the 8's and originally with Ernie Ball super slinky 8's. After adjusting to the touch issue with 8's, I was finding the strings to be hard to stay in tune, and when it was in tune, my notes seemed to shift pitch subtly as they sustained. This originally made me question my guitar tech, but then I read about these strings. I took the plunge and I can say that i'm really happy with the results. The problem I was experiencing was string related.Immediately, the strings stayed in tune after restringing guitar. I am no longer suffering from the pitchiness I was experiencing with the Ernie Ball's 8's. Also, the warmth I'm experiencing now makes my guitar sound similar to playing with 10's - more range in mid's and low notes.It's been a really great experience switching both to 8's and now these strings. All of a sudden, I feel like a really good guitarist. There are adjustments that need to be made in playing style, but I'm enjoying the ability to add subtle bends into notes and accents with chords. Stretching between 4 and 5 fret spans have also become easier. I've been playing guitar for 30 years and I wish I would have made this decision a long time ago. Also, I'm not a blues player - I do a lot of finger picking, in addition to "ambient" styles. Hope this review helps - I wasn't finding a lot of people complaining about pitch issues with the competitor's strings.
