Definitely better than you'd think
hotgstrings 26.02.2023
Might not be the best quality strings out there but definitely better than no name OEM strings with a random brand logo on them. I've had no issues with setting up them. About the sound, I feel like it's a bit brighter than I'd like it to be, hence the branding says "western". Nothing really disturbing but if you have a smaller body guitar, combination with these strings might upset you unless you're after a brighter tone. Anyway, it's safely usable especially on cheaper guitars for home sessions. I'd go higher quality for the gigs though.

Sound good to me
howardjworf@aol.com 27.12.2022
I restrung my Takamine with these as the factory strings sounded cheap to me (how to describe that? Thinner less rich tone than I had hoped for). These made the guitar sound a lot better IMO (maybe the factory strings had been put on a long time before I received it and had gone stale?)
The conclusion is that I am happy with these strings. They have been on the guitar now for a couple of months, many rehearsals and a few gigs and still sound OK, although I will change them soon.

string cut less than a month

The 3rd G string was cut in less than a month. And it's a really hard set.

Dull

Cheap as hell, which is great at the rate I go through strings. (constant gigging) But lacklustre sound, very quiet, no sustain. On my Martin. Will be replacing if recording. Surprised by all the rave reviews, fine for casual use I suppose.

Top sound for the money

Compared to what you pay, you get tenfold back in sound. Of course, they do not compare to other brands, but great sound for the money.
