Great sound

Clear, resonant, great sustain! Coming from silk and steels this is brighter, clearer, more articulate, and quite honesty more addictive to play.

It's not recommended for beginners. Use only if you have 1-2 years of experience

The media could not be loaded. Nice strings. The colour is kindof reddish yellow rather than pure gold colour... Sounds fresh. Go for it if you have bit of experience cuz these put a little bit pressure on the finger .. if your beginner go for the green or the orage packet with low gauge... Otherwise good for both fingerstyle and strum ... It's has good value for money but tax is quite concerning... It feels a bit tight than usual strings that comes with new guitars

Strings corroded within 2 weeks

The strings are original and nice, sound quality is also good but strings corroded within 2 weeks of installing, Disappointing!!

Excellent strings

✅ Pros:✔ Excellent Tone: Bright, balanced sound with good clarity—suitable for a variety of styles from rock to blues to folk.✔ Durable and Long-Lasting: D’Addario strings are known for holding up well to regular playing, especially their EXP and XT coated series.✔ Great Tuning Stability: Once stretched properly, they stay in tune very reliably.✔ Affordable & Widely Available: Excellent quality for the price, and you can find them in almost any music store or online.✔ Eco-Friendly Packaging: Corrosion-resistant packaging with minimal waste—plus, color-coded ball ends make string changes easier.❌ Cons:✘ Slightly Stiffer Feel: Some players find D’Addario strings a bit stiffer compared to Ernie Ball or Elixir, especially in lighter gauges.✘ Coated Versions Can Feel Slick: While long-lasting, the coated strings may feel a little slippery or “plasticky” to some players.✘ Not “Premium” in All Aspects: While very good overall, high-end alternatives like Elixir or NYXL might offer better sustain or finer tone for advanced players.Best for everyday players.

Decent set of strings, provides a nice balanced tone.

I recently ordered a new set of D’Addario strings (Model: EJ16 Acoustic 12-53 Light). Delivery from Amazon was prompt and I received the package in a day.I am using these strings on my Acoustic guitar (Model: Ashton SPD25CEQ). Although volume projection from it is not that great but overall it provides a very nice tonal quality.
