Yes, these strings have good quality. They sound great, BUT, the intonation is extremely unstable. The intonation of these are different with each change. If you want strings that don't require so much re-setting up the guitar, and not risking damaging the finish on your bridge due to readjusting the saddles too much, don't buy these.

I have been using these strings for about 15 years. I will never use anything else. They are the most comftorable, best sounding, and the longest lasting strings I have ever used. They have lasted six months or longer, and I play alot. Definetely buy these strings you will not be dissapointed.

Best Sounding Strings

The best sounding strings I've used so far. They sound much better than Super Slinkies.. much more tone. And they seem to last almost twice as long with my sweaty acidic fingers. They also seem to bend just as well as super slinkies. However, I gave them a 4 for features because if you cut the ball off for a floyd style bridge the wound string can come unwound. So, I just string them backwards.. however there is around 3 inches of unwound you still have to cut off which makes the strings a little shorter.. but there is still enough there.

Greatest strings ever!

These are the best sounding string I have ever tried. The only bad part of these strings is they dont seem to last very long. A friend of mine told me they are temperature sensitive so I would keep that in mind when buying these.
