"The best electric guitar string available, in my opinion."

Quality:
These strings are industry standard quality and tone, and aren't expensive at all. Again, these are the only strings I use on my electrics.

Value:
You can't get a better string for under 5 bucks.

Sound:
I've been using GHS Boomer 10's on all of my electrics since 1992. Most of my guitars have never seen another string. Before I discovered these, I tried every brand under the sun including DR's, Dean Markley, Blue Steel, Ernie Ball (used them all through the 80's and they always broke), D'Addario (sterile, break), etc. I have always found the Boomers to be made well and they have a lively, punchy tone. They have never rusted on me (in fact I've never had any strings rust on me, so I don't get the previous reviewer), and I've only broken one of these maybe 3 times in 15 years. I gig every weekend and practice about 3 times a week. I change sets every two weeks. Changing strings is nothing to me, where some people like to strain out 4 bucks and keep them on for 2 or 3 months. Chances are the previous reviewr isn't having any better luck with other brands.

Overall:
There's nothing I would change about these strings.

"GHS BOOMERS"

Quality:
I feel that for the money boomers seem to last a fair amount of time before that start losing sound. Like I said before I give mine heck and they very seldom break before they have a right to.

Sound:
I have used bommers for about 5 years now. I tried alot of lot of others before I settled on these. I like to bend my stings and I like em heavy. .11-.50s Some other brands just don't hold up no matter how "slinky" they might claim to be. I like DR's better, but when value meets price it stops at boomers for me.
