Feature:
Just bare-bones phosphor bronze strings.
Quality:
As I said, these are the strings to which every other acoustic string is compared. They are high-quality.
Value:
Getting harder to find deals on them, but they are competitively priced.
Desirability:
?
Sound:
Apparently the last reviewer had a bone to pick with the company, because many pros will tell you these are the industry standard strings. I've tried many so-called 'boutique' strings and these are the most consistent in terms of clarity, longevity, and sustain.
Ease of Use:
They sound good when you put them on, so they don't really require a break-in, but I prefer them after about an hour of playing time.
Support:
N/A
Overall:
I've been using them for years. I esperiment with others, but always come back to them.

1 out of 10
Quality:
Read what I had to say about the sound, you'll know what the quality is. Terrible.
Value:
Do not buy these strings, do not even take them for free, they will only harm your guitars sound.
Desirability:
The string coating flakes, the strings rust quickly and are easily broken.
Sound:
The sound of these strings is a very cheap one, they have no brightness or decent tone to them at all. The strings have very little of that "new string" sound in the first place, and are gone withing minutes of the first note. Speaking of the first note, you will notice that it will not ring for very long, the string sound DOES NOT RESONATE. I've tried these strings in several settings, and none of them make these strings sound any better, this includes halls, and closed rooms as well as outdoors. The strings don't sound any better when recorded and sound terrible being played through an amp on an acoustic electric guitar.
Ease of Use:
The strings require constant retuning, and will often fall out of tune mid song.
Support:
I've yet to contact the company, but will soon about the poor quality of these strings.
Overall:
The only decent strings I've bought from this company are EXP mediums for acoustic guitars, they are simply amazing, but these strings are an embarassment and I will never put them on my guitar again.
