Perfect for D-Standard and a joy to play.
Since trying my first balanced tension set 6-8 months ago I have been in love with the idea. Where the option exists, I will never be going back to a regular set of strings.
Why are they great?
Very similar tension across all strings makes chording and consistent playing a breeze. Of course it is possible with a 'regular set', but it is simply easier like this.
As per usual, D'addario strings sound great and easily last a month of regular, heavy playing (or two if you don't play too much).
the 11-50 set is perfect for my d-Standard guitar (and you could exchange the 50 for a 56 if you wanted drop-c with a balanced tension - I have tried it). This particular guitar has the 25.5" scale.
Negatives?
What negatives?
I can't really think of any, however I don't gig often so I will add a notice that D'Addario also make strings which they claim last longer. If you end up very sweaty during a performance, these strings might not last as long as they do for me.

Use 11 for my hollow body guitar instead of 9 - the sound has become more saturated

Excellent feel
D’Addario strings are often a little tighter than other brands of the same gauges. However, the balanced tension sets are sth very special. I love these when fresh on an old SG with PAF pup vibe, (Bkp pg blues). Like the 10-46BT they feel great across all the strings, are very cheap by comparison and sound great in Eb. Well done D’Add lads!
The new shipping rates for items under €200 is an absolute winner. It makes it possible to make smaller orders now, and in addition, using ups to Hungary instead of hungarian post is a great deal more efficient, so far..

Great Strings for Bigsby Users
I've been using these strings on any Bigsby equipped guitar for the past 6 years, allow for greater tuning stability.

Good but...
D'Addario is probably the most well-known guitar string company at the moment. My only complaint, and that of many others, is that they don't last long. You have to change them often. Perhaps more often than other brands.
