Overall they are a truly great product and I highly recommend them.
Four of the six strings are obvious to me just by looking at them, but the D and the G are very hard for me to tell apart and the color coding doesn't help me a bit
I've never in my life broken a string from just playing my guitar ever, and these strings did just that, I was practicing a Hollywood Undead song and had the D string break, yeah waste of money.
I'm a musician and one that does NOT mind paying the extra money for a good quality product
A fair price for these in my opinion is $12-15, since they are new
Probably my favorite string (at least at the moment)... really nice heavy gauge strings, I got the 1150BT balanced tensions ones, so the 50 low E is especially nice since it's a little heavier than a normal 48, but not quite as chunky as a 52
I have been looking for strings that compare to Thomastik Infield Power Brights for a better price, but these fall short.
These not only are at a great price, they are great quality for the price they are at
Excellent strings, excellent price, fast shipping - overall
Strings are nice and bright, like advertised, but the high E was tarnished in a few spots
The Strings were damaged a little bit, i'm not sure if it will affect the sound of the strings, but from what i read, it might

The G string broke prematurely and has been replaced with a DR Pure Blues of the same gauge
Excellent customer service, and as for the strings themselves: well I bought them because they are my favorite after years of trial, and its certainly no different for a pack of 8 string
I've been playing guitar for about 40 years and I find these to be the best strings I've ever used
I can now say that these new NYXL strings are the best string I have used to date
I have been trying every type and brand names....and for now, I have found the perfect strings.....warm sound and they stary in tune even after a hard tremolo use....
: High E snapped at post during stringing, G & B sticky to slide due to the nature of the metal alloy (couldn't even test the high E), not as easy to bend as advertised - the gauges I run feel like a heavier gaugeToo many negatives to warrant the price

These have the best feel of any electric strings I have ever used

I just got these for my telecaster (52 reissue), they sound good so far, have a nice feel, not overly bright, a bit smooth

Don't get me wrong, there are many decent strings; but only a few that are truly "better" (i.e. sound great, last a longer, tune faster and that don't lose tune when bending or whammy use)
They play so smoothly and hold their tune shockingly well, even right after stringing
otherwise they are great strings and hold there tune very well
The selling point here is that they really stay in tune well during a show

The bends sound great and they retain tuning fairly well.

Smooth bends and just an all around great feel and sound
I have been using these strings for years, so the second string breaking was clearly a very random fluke, and along with replacing my set they even sent me an extra second string for good measure
In comparison, this set of D'Addario NYXL strings are an overall improvement over the EBs
I have used their regular daddario nickel strings & achieved bends from E to G# or even A from the same 2nd string 17th fret, playing for months without changing strings & they never broke.maybe i just received a bad set, but at 8 or 10$ , man that hurts
Strings are nice and bright, like advertised, but the high E was tarnished in a few spots
I put on the new set on Mon evening, and the A string just broke on Sat afternoon.

With the D'addarios I can bend as hard as I can possibly can, and I've never had a string break on me... and they just
, it really helped with the buzzing and sustain but it had a more metallic sound, not as rich and warm as the NYXL's , and a couple of days later they felt rusty and the High E string broke during a very light bend
