## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I could string it easily and sounds better than the ones I got along with the guitar
*by A***O on 12 December 2020*

I am an amateur on the guitar. Thats how I broke a string trying to tune when the tuner was set on the banjo mode instead of the guitar mode.Ordered this after reading the good reviews. I replaced all 6 strings using only a wire cutter, after watching videos online. Seach for "How to string guitar without tools", else most videos show it using the winder tool.And its sounds good too.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Overrated but still nice
*by K***K on 10 February 2025*

Dunno if I was expecting too much because of the hype, or because I was replacing the excellent Martin Monel strings, bit these didn't impress me at all in the beginning.Over a couple years I've come to like them, and as you noted, yes they last really long.They have a deep mellow sound that's different from phosphor bronze, but the highs are lacking tho not bad.Great for strumming to accompany yourself while singing

### ⭐⭐⭐ Three Stars
*by S***R on 9 January 2017*

It's not the best but it's goodThe Tone is kinda dry but gives a nice Acoustic essence
