Great feeling and sounding strings! Use them on the Stratocasters.

Originally played 09 light gauge and eventually went to .10 as ( couldn't keep them in tune with another make. Tried these....I'm back to light gauge!

Superb string I always used a different make until these were recommended by milehouse studios and I haven’t looked back since fantastic strings

Strings are resilient and have a great sound.
