Recently, I tried a lot of various strings for my 8 string, and these are apparently the best! I decided to try these out and buy the 8th string separately because Harley benton sells 0.74 as an 8th string, which is not thick enough for the drop E tuning.
After trying out nyxl, earnie ball, strandberg and other brands I found out that these are the brightest and spankiest strings I played so far, which is very important to me since I play techniques like thumping, tapping, selective picking etc.
We'll see how long they stay fresh, but at this price, they are awesome!
