    buying again for sure

    This is my third time buying this exact set because once you get used to that nickel plated steel bite on a hex core nothing else feels right for heavy rhythm tracks. They last super long even with daily thrash practice

    best gift for my husband

    Got these for my husband who is obsessed with pantera and heavy metal riffs. He was super happy when he opened the packet because he loves doing aggressive whammy bar dives and these hold their tuning amazingly well without snapping. Total value for a guitarist
