My husband loves this brand for stringing his guitars. It has consistent quality and it also arrived quickly. We would order them again (and have!). He says they are forgiving and easy to use

They feel great, but wear out too fast. Unless you are Angus Young (who probably has a fresh set installed by his tech at his will), you’re better off using Elixir strings for its durability.

Junk strings. Broke during restring. Didn't even get up to tune.(Updated to 4 stars. Ernie Ball customer service is top notch and sent out replacement strings immediately. New strings seam good)

These are great strings and love the Ball-ends finish.The only draw back is for a Telecaster with a Bigsby, (long string path on Treble E, B strings, -- it was almost not long enough which surprised me. Typically, life long one clips off a good bit, then wraps it. Not here. If you kink it or mess up, you'll be buying another E, B string for want of like 4 inches or so and in any other set I've used.So, being mindful of that, - these have great tone, feel, and nice not to siff core, but not floppy or springy at all, nice firm, yielding warm high carbon steel tone, - wonderful in that regard, and what else is important otherwise anyway.

I have several guitars and two which are very expensive Pro guitars. On the cheaper guitars for everyday use it really doesn't matter what kind of strings I use as those guitars are used for hours of practice and fret wearing activities. On my Fender American Strat. and my Music Man JPX6, I can hear a noticeable difference between brands and the gauge of the strings. I have tried many stings on these two but they always sound their absolute best when I use these strings. They are not made to last forever (that dulls the sound anyway) and they last as long as most. Overall, if you want your guitar to sound really good, make sure the intonation is adjusted for the specific gauge strings you use. If that's off, no matter what strings you use it will not sound as good as it can. Even going from .08 to .10 strings will require a readjustment on the intonation. So, if you have someone adjust your intonation, take a set of these strings with you and have that person setup the guitar with them on the guitar and you will find they are the best available for electric guitar.
