These strings are amazing and you can play anything on them. These strings sound absolutely gorgeous. Thank you George Benson.

I just put these strings onto my Mark Campellone Archtop and what a world of a difference it makes versus the standard round wound D'Addario's I was using (and recommended by the luthier). There is no fret noise when changing positions and they give the guitar that nice, fat, warm jazz tone that I'd been looking for. Yeah, they're pricey, but so was my guitar and I'd definitely recommend. These will be my go to from now on.

ロングスケールのギターにはA=432Hzにチューニングして全音落としてもテンションが強すぎてネックが反ると思います…アイバニーズGB-10のようなショートスケールのギターにはA=432で半音もしくは全音下げたとき丁度いいのかもしれませんね…テンションも柔らかく素晴らしいジャズトーンです

Ottima fattura e qualità e buona conservazione all'apertura, bellissimo suono. Purtroppo la doratura del rivestimento dei cantini tende a deteriorarsi molto facilmente (probabilmente a causa del materiale: ottone) tuttavia la corda di per sé si conserva molto bene

These are the best made, most beautiful-sounding strings I've ever encountered. They're spendy, but a single set lasts for months and months if you clean them regularly, and the tone barely deteriorates over time. Yes, they're sublime for traditional jazz sounds. But contrary to most users' opinions, they are MAGNIFICENT for distortion, with stout, perfectly formed fundamentals and a minimum or sloppy highs. Remember: most guitar strings were pure nickel until the late ’60s, and much was lost when rising nickel prices prompted the industry to use other materials. For reference: I'm a longtime guitar magazine editor and recording/touring musician, as jaded as they come. These inspire me every time I pick up one of my guitars.

I don't play jazz and i've had these on my Les Paul clone made by Agile/Rondo music. They sound great unplugged. They last forever - I've had mine on for 2 years and they sound fine to me. They are the best feel and tone i've ever played. Won't play anything else. Well worth the investment.

Great strings but the high E snapped upon installation and it took 2 weeks for the replacement to come.

I have tool to see consistency of each string perfect.bright bit extra tension should last longer than standard strings by 30 % percent.Gauges cost more to put together than this awesome set.A must for Gb fans and students.

The best sounding and feeling flat wound strings I've ever used but the price is high. I can't yet tell how long they will last but if they keep their wonderful tone for a long time they will be worth the money. Five stars for quality, four stars because of the price.

Yes, I know these are expensive, but I think it is worth it. I have used various strings over the years and I think these have the most tone and they do seem to last a long time. I put these on my jazz boxes; ES175, DAngelico vestex and use theses guitars for bebop, straight ahead stuff and they bring out the tone, especially behind a female singer. I haven't tried them for more contemporary jazz on an ES335 or a solid body, I just got the impression they would not sound as good on these guitars since I need to have the ability to do more string pulls on these guitars for the blues and rock/jazz that I would play on these guitars.

These sound fantastic!!!So maybe you won't put these on your $100 guitar... or maybe you should??? If you spent $4K on an ES-175 then clearly you've got the cash to string it up with these. Did I mention they sound fantastic??? But (just maybe) if you spent $100 on a garage sale jazz box then you've got $3900 left to buy a lifetime supply of these strings, which will surely make your bargain axe sound its best.They don't just sound great, they also feel great. To be clear, they won't make you sound great if you don't already. But if you do, they surely won't hold you back. You can buy those $6 strings and always wonder if you should have tried these... or you can just pony up the cash to find out. If you're reading this, you know you want to. Do it.
