Quality:
Fantastic quality. They are packaged well (vacuum sealed), play great, and last a long time. I'm an avid player who tends to put off puting on new strings, and one of the reasons I got into the (not-so-good) habit was because these strings don't ever seem to wear down. They rarely break, and I don't take it easy on them either. These strings are incredibly well-made.
Value:
They may be a little more pricey than other brands (by about, what maybe $1?), and believe me, you get every cent out of that extra dollar and more. If the tone alone isn't enough to convince you, the durability will. You'll probably save more than $1 because you won't have to constantly replace them (unless you REALLY punish your strings, in which case you might need to back off a bit..). I would take one pack of these for 3 packs of any of the cheaper brands
Sound:
These are simply the best sounding strings I've ever encountered. Warm and full, with a plenty of bite and sustain. They have a chime to them when played clean, and they have a perfect growl when driven hard. No matter what style you play, these strings will sound great.
Overall:
If you haven't tried these strings, you're missing out. Any other brand pales in comparison. I've been playing for about 11 years, and once I started using vintage reissues I never stopped. They're the best.
