surprisingly good strings
I've tried these strings with my D-28. I wasn't expecting to like them the way I did. Soon after I mounted them I found the overall tone to be too bright, way too bright and thin actually. But it didn't take too much time for them to change in tone and to get warmer and balanced.
They are not super long lasting, but they didn't lost their crispness too early either. I'm pleased by them, and I do suggest to try them.

Great sound, good lifespan too
I bought these to put on a Yamaha APX500II after a few years of using Martin M140 strings. I found them to sound very full and clear, particularly through the pickups in the Yamaha. The level of tension they provide suits the way I play, which is usually pretty hard being a metal guitarist over all else.
To me, they feel familiar, having mainly played electric guitar, but with a pleasing full sound that you really don't quite get with a clean electric guitar!
The strings show no corrosion or damage out the hermetically seal packaging, and were easy to put onto the guitar. They lasted a little longer than many other strings I tried, particularly given that I play fairly infrequently, leaving the strings open to more corrosion from the environment than wear on contact with my hands!
Overall a worthwhile buy, I'd consider them one of my top acoustic strings to purchase.

helder en sprankelend geluid
Ik ben fan van deze snaren, makkelijk te bespelen door de dikte en een mooi sprankelend en helder, maar ook vol geluid.

Awesome warm sound
When it came to change the strings to my acoustic i didn't know what to pick, so i decided to go with ernie ball as i really like them on my electric guitars. I was really impressed with sound!! The tone was so crystal, harmonic, mellow and warm!! The guitar was singing with them!! I'd totally recommend them!!

Sonnent très bien mais durée de vie assez courte
Beaucoup de brillance, ça sonne vraiment très bien pour du folk quand les cordes sont neuves, idéal avant une prise de son studio par exemple.
Par contre après 2 semaines ça se dégrade assez vite, même si la concurrence ne fait pas beaucoup mieux.

Good option!
I enjoy these strings very much. I own a Fender cd 60 ce and when I changed it´s original strings for these ones it became much more alive. A very rich and metallic sound that i love. not the cheapest out there but also not the priciest. A very good set for everybody. The only thumbs down is for me, i am a clumbsy guy and if you are (like me) not careful, the strings tend to get dirty i guess, with tiny darker stains it´s not rust and it´s easy to clean out with a proper product or even with a everyday use cloth.

A wonderful surprise
Previously I used DD strings on the acoustic .12 on the high-E. The acoustic is an old, somewhat scratched (I should tell "natural relic") piece of wood with a really annoying neck shape. The strings have a really warm sound on the basses and a brilliant tone on the unwounded B and E. Of course it can't make a Martin from my wood, but it def. changed the sound. I have the strings on the instrument just for a week so I can't evaluate their "life"
Pros
Very warm, bright, strings, really impressed
Cons
A little harder on fingers compared to other steel brands - same gauge.

Less tension, no broken fingers, great tone !!
They are incredibly balanced strings. The harmonics are effortless and the overtones aren't bad at all, maybe just a little bit.
Playing fingerstyle with these strings are easy and sound very well.
I can play all day long and my fingers won't hurt. That is one of the main reasons I love them. Very nice choice !!!

Solid set of strings!
As the headline says, they're solid set of strings, they sound good and feel good, tuning wasn't super fast but still pretty good.
Can recommend them for sure!
