    These are beautiful sound and playing strings. Not super bright, but play amazingly well on versatile strat style guitars. 1 package came with some light weathering on the strings, but they still sounded very alive and like new strings should. The other 4 packs were perfect.

    For electric guitar these are a good quality string with balanced tension and good tone. The packaging keeps them fresh and I have not ever received a bad set. Available in many assorted gauge sets for electric guitar from light to heavy. I believe they compete well in the market place with other major guitar string manufacturing companies.

    These strings feel and sound excellent. They have a great tone which is not too dark nor too bright and not harsh at all. Best Buy had these on clearance and the price was the cheapest around. Will be buying more to stock up.

    GHS Boomers are a product that I've used on various instruments through the years. For the price, they hold up well. When cleaned/maintained properly they will last for several hours of playing. When I am not selecting an "elite" string such as Elixirs, I choose these for the best value.
