Great sound, strange balance.
Meestie 29.03.2026
The balance of these gauges are a little strange for me. 2nd and 4th string could be slightly smaller. First set i bought snapped 3 strings at the tuner side (due to locking tuner pressure). If you use locking tuners you would need to leave some room to do at least one wrap around the post on the thicker strings.

Best strings i had
Ossiekort 10.06.2021
I used to play SIT strings wich i really liked. I played Ernie Ball for a long time untill these D'addario NYXL strings came to market. I switched to 8 string guitar and got these on recommendation by a friend and i never looked back. These strings sound full, play really well and last really long without any need for fastfrett or any kind of string conditioner. An absolute must buy.

They lose brightness kinda quick
Anxo Jorge 17.10.2023
As title stated, they sound great for the first month, but then they dull out quickly and after two months of playing semi regularly I wanted to change them.

Megalodon 02.09.2021
So basically, I've stringed my guitar and hung her on the wall for like a month, strings got rusty and unstable without even playing my guitar...
