Up until now I had only used Ernie Balls on my guitars - I had tried Daddario on my acoustics and was pleased but never on my electrics. I bought these because a friend recommended them and boy, these are just amazing.
First off, I use low gauge strings and are constantly buying new packs. I've even bought multipacks but I doubt I will from now on. These feel like 9's, but they last like 11's. I don't know what black magic Daddario are pulling but even when I've been proper going for it on the high E I've not been worried at all. For a regular gigging guitarist who likes something low, theses will be fantastic.
Secondly the feel of these is like silk, they play fantastically and chime beautifully through a clean setting - I use a lot of fuzz too though, and they turn dark and very smooth when overdriving, just awesome.
When you first restring your guitar these do sound very metallic, but after a couple of hours of playing they develop a beautiful character. Definitely would buy again, worth every penny.
