Bang for the buck!
I was looking for Baritone strings for my Ibanez Talman. Nowadays I mostly play in C# standard because I play slide. I tried a set of .15's (I can't remeber from what brand) but they were too heavy for my liking. Then I bought this set, and they are perfect in most ways. Here's a + and - list:
Pro's:
+ The strings tune up and adjust to your neck very evenly if that makes any sense. My guitar had no issue's getting used to these strings, even when it wasn't setup for this kind of tension.
+ The lifetime on these is pretty good. For my Strat (standard tuning) I wear out a set of .10's in 3-4 weeks. These can last up to 12 weeks (when you play that much)!
+ They are very comfortable to play! Very smooth strings.
Con's
- Of course these strings are heavier than regular strings. Eventough they are Baritone strings you still lose some top end from the high G, B and E strings (compared to other brands).
- Considered the massive tension difference (compared to regular .10's or .09's) you might not be able to setup your guitar properly. If so, please contact a luthier who can help and assist you with setting up your instrument. The last thing you want is that you become frustrated because it plays like a totally different guitar.
So, in conclusion, these are the perfect strings for what I do. Honestly; if you're thinking about trying them out, please do so. You won't regret it for this price.
