Great strings for a great price

Anonymous 24.01.2017

I use to use Elixir strings for years, my sweat is very corrosive and for a long time that was the only way to go. I tried these last summer and I must say they work great for me. Nice warm tone, plenty of spank and punch, long life and no corrosion - who could ask for more at such a great price. Now these are mine favourite strings for acoustic - for fingerstyle, slide or strumming - these work great. After 30 years of playing a guitar I have finally found the strings that do not cost that much but still have everything I need. I am currently experimenting with different gauges and again I have decided to use Harley Benton strings for my acoustic guitars - you just can`t beat the quality/price ratio. I actually liked a slightly warmer tone these have compared to Elixir, they are warm and not so bright as acoustic elixir - just the way I like it. If you are looking for a great quality at a resonable price these are the strings for you. I will surely buy more in the future - as an active musician I always need reliable and good sounding strings for my guitars.

Inconsistent quality has spoiled first impressions

Dingerhoffen 27.08.2024

I purchased 30+ packs of these strings after a friend passed me a set to try and I was very impressed.
I've waited to provide a review in case the issue i faced was a one or two time problem, but sadly, no.
in the positive, the tone of these strings is comparable to a far more expensive brand that I am used to, and they feel great under the fingers.
However the strings I have received do not live up to the promise of the pack I was gifted!
They still sound/feel just as good however they are not durable, or should I say, one of them is not durable?
I gig 2-3 times a week and I use Eb tuning so the strings are not even at full tension but I am finding that the B string is consistently snapping during gigs. Almost Every performance is now being interrupted by a string change. I've had them break at the nut, the bridge, the pin and even partway down the fretboard.
I'm not even an "aggressive" player. I don't use a pick and mostly just provide fairly gentle strumming!

The problem I now have is that I posses many packs missing the B string!

I will still probably order a couple more packs with whatever I next purchase, to see if the defect was specific to my batch, as my fist experience was that these were excellent strings.

(P.S. does anyone know where I can purchase about 30 B strings?)
