Customers find the musical instrument strings very comfortable for an infrequent user. They say the nylon is easier on the fingers and the strings feel and sound great. The strings are affordable and have a fast-feeling flat/satin finish.

Customers are mixed about the quality of the musical instrument strings. Some mention that they hold up nicely, sound great, and are long-lasting, while others say that they're not wound properly, fall apart with minimal wear, lack lows and highs, and have reduced sustain and projection. They also say that the strings snap at the tuning peg and don't have the right amount of tension.

"...These strings won’t disappoint. Take your time to tie them correctly. Give them a few days to stretch a little...." Read more

16 customers mention8 positive8 negative

Customers are mixed about the ease of installation of the musical instrument strings. Some mention that it's easy to install for beginners, easy to use, and convenient. However, others say that there's a lack of instruction, the gauges of the strings are confusing to install, and the finish is flat or satin.

15 customers mention9 positive6 negative

Customers are mixed about the fit of the musical instrument strings. Some mention that they fit their little 1/2 size perfectly and sound great, while others say that they barely fit a standard scale classical. The length was fine, but there was nothing on the end to hold the string. However, some say that the diameter is a bit bigger on these, so the G string is a little bit bigger. The only negative is that the B string was too big for the slot in the nut.

"...I change out my string after 30 to 60 days of use and these can go a full year." Read more

Customers are dissatisfied with the color of the musical instrument strings. They mention that the strings are color coded, but there is no key to identify which color is which. Some say that the color coding wears off immediately.

There's better, but not at this price
I am a teacher and player by trade. I have tried most major brands, including the bigger brother of these strings, the ProArte strings. I have found that most strings in the $15-25 range are roughly equivalent, and that all the under $5 strings I have tried were garbage. I saw this at just over $5 and was intrigued. Are they worth it? Yes. Are they just as good as the $15 ones? No.Pros:Warmer, mid focused tone.Less squeakStays tied, stabilized and stretched quicklyVery affordableFast feeling flat/satin finishCons:No complexity, lacking lows and highsReduced sustainLess projectionUnlikely to last longI assumed that they were D'addario, and would be somewhat close to the ProArte, but I was wrong. I don't dislike them enough to take them back off, but I probably won't buy another set. They would be fine for laminate top instruments where you're not really expecting a ton of sustain. On my entry level solid top takamine, the sustain is half of what it was. If you're looking for an affordable way to avoid string squeak, this is actually not a bad choice. The squeak is also half of what it was, and nothing under $50 is as quiet.I know some reviewers are complaining that the strings aren't marked, but I didn't have that problem. There's a paint ring about an inch from one end on every string but the 6th.
