Review: Great sound, easy to play. - I've used round-core strings for many years - Thomastik Infeld, Pyramid, Newtone and DR. I think that they sound more musical than hex-core strings (could be my imagination of course) and whatever gauge I'm using, they feel like one gauge lighter. Just easier to fret and bend. Great on my 2003 Les Paul. They're a bit more hassle to fit and they cost more because they're "hand-made". DR strings are the most affordable of the ones I use. I used to import them directly from the USA where they are incredibly cheap but shipping costs outweigh the low-prices and delivery is slow. So, I got this last batch from the UK-based Guitar Gear Pro on desertcart and got a great price & free next-day delivery.
Review: The best string s - These are quite honestly the best strings I’ve ever tried. Their sound is amazing and they feel so smooth under the fingers. They last longer than most strings too, very durable. The appearance is great. Good to see cardboard packaging instead of plastics. Overall performance is fantastic. Great sounding and would highly recommend.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Vintage Tone Heaven
*by T***D on 10 November 2012*

O.k. There are some guitar tones that you hear and you'd love to replicate them with your own gear. But nothing quite reaches the mark..........until I discovered these guitar strings....... Defining tone is a almost an impossible job. However here's my attempt. The tone I was after was Keith Richards with his telecaster on later Stones albums and with the Xpensive Winos. Or Pete Townshend with his EC stratocaster with the gold lace sensor pick ups in Live 8. How do you describe their tone? Very rich - warm - nicotine stained sustain - almost a buzz. Vintage. Expensive. So through time have bought a strat and fitted gold lace sensor pick ups. Bought telecaster and fitted Seymour Duncan Broadcaster bridge pick up. Both guitars with this set up sound fanstastic through a fender blues deluxe amp....but still not quite there. BECAUSE STRINGS ARE MASSIVELY IMPORTANT TO TONE. Then gave these strings a try. These strings have given me the icing on the cake to what was a already two great sounding guitars. These strings with this gauge have given me THE EXACT TONE I was after as described in previous sentences. Brilliant strings with warmth and ringing sustain. They are the best I have ever fitted on any of my guitar collection - with 26 years experience of doing so. Very happy. If you want the above type tones - many people do - you MUST give these a try.
