There was a time where I would use the same brand across all of my acoustics, but recently I decided to experiment with different brands to maintain continuity with the tone on each of them. It is interesting because I tend to gravitate back to my ?go to? strings. I have to say, through the years, this brand has always been one of my top three ?go to? set of strings. I love the tone and ring I get with these strings, not to mention the ease in playing. If there was any draw back, it would have to be the changing out, but then again, constant playing will do that. For this price, well worth changing them out when the ring begins to fade.
