Let's start with the sound, they are rich, bright and full sounding, very smooth feeling, almost like a solid rubber. They bend amazingly and retain their sound after much tremolo use with both a flood rose & a bigsby tremolo.
Now the looks are their real point - simply put, they look incredible! Very bright even in the daytime, they don't look nasty or cheap as I've read elsewhere, they are very bright, true to their stated colour. The red set looks bright red, and under a black light glow like they are running on electricity
