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.

Replaced 10g with this 11g. And I can fell big difference in how I play. Strings don't bend soo easy and you stay in tune if you push hard on strings like I do.
