Ok for the price but I think my guitar deserves better
Mal B 26.08.2015
since I am very new to using nickel strings I'm not sure about these yet. For live performances I'm using a Godin Ultra A6 on stage now for the last four months. I have to say I love it slim body, my arms,neck and shoulders are thanking me that I no longer have a large body guitar having around me for three hours at a time 150 days a year.
Back to the strings I think they are too cheaply made and therefore lose their tune from an acoustic players perspective but this can be compensated for by lifting the hum bucker vol.
I will be looking at more expensive strings

Can't go wrong with these

Honestly these were the cheapest of the heavier guages that thomann stocked, so I bought a couple sets of 12's and 13's, so I stuck the 12's on a les paul in D standard and now that thing is a rock/metal machine and a half, the heavier strings make me forgive it's thin neck for some reason, but hey ho I now actually like playing that guitar, and as for the 13's, C# on and SG for some sabbath riffing and they are awesome

Fine, but nothing special....

I bought these because I wanted to experiment with a heavier gauge on one of my strats. Turns out that 12 is just too heavy for me. I've used 12 on my shorter scale les paul style guitars, but I just find them too tense on a strat. So I'll go back to 11s. But the sound was fine. No complaints. I've heard (but have yet to try) that Pyramid Nickel Classics are easier to bend at higher gauges in comparison to other brands (due to Pryamid using round cores). So that may be an option. Though for a typical jazz style player I guess it wouldn't matter (I play more in a blues vein, so lots of bending). Anyway, decent enough string, but I think there are more interesting options out there for not much more in price.

Great string - Great price
Anonymous 23.06.2014
I usually use strings of medium to high gauges on my hollow-body guitar, and always had a preference for Dean Markley strings.
They may not last as long as the expensive Elixir strings, but if changed regularly they are great for blues or jazz sounds.

I'm not proud of this but one of my guitars still has a set of 7-year old Dean Markley strings than I installed 7 years ago and half of them broke around the bridge but were still long enough to be tied there with a knot, and while they obviously sound duller that they should I do not feel the need of changing them!
