I started using these strings because my older brother used them. When I became more proficient and looking for different things I started experimenting with other strings, cheaper brands and more expensive brands like elixers, but after a lot of experimenting I came back to these and wouldn't change. They sound great, rarely break, and last very long, they sound great after weeks.
I used to play gigs regularly and these strings could last about a month of regular gigging. I don't play live as much now so the strings last much longer and still sound bright. The colour coded ends make string changes easy also.
