Disappointing tone and lifespan.

Anonymous 10.03.2017

These strings were recommended to me as an alternative to some anti rust strings i've been using. I was assured these strings were long lasting and more suitable for the tuning I was using. Alas, this was not the case.

The strings have a very dull sound and make my axe fx and ibanez prestige S sound bad. The bottom strings turned a dark grey a single day after using them and they seem to have lost their tone overnight. The overall tone was slightly muddy when they were new but the gauge is too thick even for extremely low tunings to A and B. There was no give and little life when the strings were new and they died almost straight away. I couldn't recommend these strings to anyone looking for a long lasting set of strings.

Finally competition to Elixir's

Aga_ 11.02.2019

Like in the topic, finally some string manufacturer dared to design guitar strings that may compete with good old Elixir's. The sound is bright and they tend not to buzz as Elixirs may have. Also, they are not covered with a material that is used with Elixirs so I presume that using some string cleaner would be beneficial and will extend strings lifespan.

Believe the hype!

Dispersedashes 09.08.2013

After watching several glowing reviews on youtube, I decided to take the plunge with a six string set of Ernie Ball slinky cobalt, and hang the expense... The sheer tone improvement and longevity were more than worth the money. I was delighted when EB saw sense and introduced a seven string set! Not only do they deliver excellent tone and staying power, the gauge selections in this set are very well balanced, with a mighty 62 on the seventh string. I had previously been compelled to change strings after only a couple of recording sessions to preserve the sustain and clarity... with cobalts I am five songs in and they are still bright and powerful. Now, I wonder when they'll introduce an eight string set... Many thanks Ernie Ball!

Nice range on these strings

Daiba 12.12.2018

These strings serve me very well playing a wide range of genres.

I use a lot of legato and tapping in my playing and I find these strings to hold up very well and sound clear on low, mid and high frequencies.

I haven't come across an issues with this product.
