Feature:
The wound 3rd string holds true tone longer,more "gliss"

Quality:
Thick enough to hold tonality and thin enough that finger pressure is minimal

Sound:
Responsive with light touch and good for various styles of fingering

Overall:
Round wound strings have brilliant tone they're good if you like glissening up/down the frets Flatwound strings could help someone starting out to play and have sensitive finger tips. Transitions are easier.

"Wrap It Up"

Overall:: 9 out of 10
Features:: 9 out of 10
Sound:: 9 out of 10

Submitted: 9/26/2008

Feature:
Wrapped third stays in tune. It's what I have been looking for over 40 years.

Quality:
If you want to stay the G to sound balanced with the rest of the strings, use a wrapped third.

Value:
I have had my set on for a year of steady playing.

Sound:
The only reason I did not rate this a 10 is the less "bendability" of the third string, which is wrapped, unlike most other sets sold.

Ease of Use:
Hey, you pluck the strings.

Support:
Unknown. Who would try to claim a warranty on a guitar string?
