Reviews around product (4.59 of 5)

  • would not recommend this product
  • i totally recommend this product because its low price very nice and plays good this is the strings if ur looking for low price strings
  • I can't blame the product entirely because I shouldn't have expected the same quality with the lower price, but a few things about my experience:The strings get out of tune incredibly quickly, every 5 minutes it seems I have to retune everythingPerhaps the most annoying thing was the upper E string being incredibly buzzy, I've had some issues with this in the past but nothing too bad; however, these strings make it unplayable, and it only seems to get worse with time
  • A great product that plays well with excellent sustain, keeps in tune on a good setup, and helps squeeze a good tone out of an entry level acoustic (Fender Redondo).
  • Ernie Ball himself was an amazing person and human, his kids are ungrateful brats and give this product and company a very bad reputation and name.

Reviews around tone (4.22 of 5)

  • Maybe its because they are lighter strings but the sound is crisp and clear with a great tone.
  • I FINALLY had to substitute the fist E string with one of the second strings from another packet, which my calipers show to be the same diameter
  • I enjoy playing these strings, but they lose their crisp tone very
  • I hear reviews from friends about other strings and have to try them out, but after they start losing their tone, I keep putting these ones on my guitar
  • They are much better than nylon strings, and I loved the tone once my guitar was in tune

Reviews around brand (4.12 of 5)

  • I've bought way more expensive brands to have them break within 20 minutes of the show!
  • 4 my nephew , I only buy DR myself , but these look ok for acoustic , they're not the top of the line but not bad as the EB electric strings , fret wearars , rough made EB slinky s R , but 4 cheap strings , good deal
  • Seeing as the ol' digits aren't as strong or flexible as they once were, I had been looking for strings that were more comfortable on my old man hands.
  • I've always loved the brand and getting a 3 pack just means more playing in the near future
  • Been buying this brand for over 40 years and usually never disappointed
