I tried them, and I didn't care for them. Supposedly, Jimmy Page used these strings on his D-28. I love Jimmy's acoustic stuff, but I used these strings on my HD-28, and my ears didn't like em. They sounded dead off the bat, and they started to sound even worse as I played them. Maybe I got a bad set???

I'm still experimenting with other strings.

Used to use them back in the mid-70s, because I could buy 'em in bulk VERY cheaply ($2 for 6-string sets, $3.75 for 12-string)...sounded OK for a gig or two, but kinda "crashy/bright" for the 1st hour or so, then they'd be dead after about 6-10 hours use...depending on your individual body chemistry, they might last longer or die earlier.

Give 'em a try, you might like 'em. :)
