We've been playing these EHX Strings ever since we first took them home to try them out, back in 2002. We find them to consistently offer rich harmonics with powerful definition, while also lasting longer and staying in tune longer than conventional strings. We use them, we like them, and we think you will too. Available in 9's, 10's, 11's. |
