Sound
Sounds OK.
Features
Ball end is convenient when restringing.
Ease of Use
It's a guitar string, what can you say?
Quality
The "D" string breaks after a couple of weeks. This happened with *three* packs of strings!

Again, the "D" string breaking after only modest use is unforgivable.

Haven't used it.

"What's wrong with the D string???"
To save the string life, tune a whole step down.
Sound
The sound is good for me but a little more sad than romantic.
Features
Classical guitars don't need ball ends.
Ease of Use
The strings are hard to tune at standard tuning. You can feel the tension easily.
Quality
Yes it is true, the "D" string breaks after a couple of weeks. I'm not an aggressive player and never tried to trill the strings with a pick. But what's wrong with the "D" string? It breaks easily in the middle of the fretboard.
Value
String life is too short for the price paid.
Again the "D" string breaks easily.
Manufacturer Support
Never tried customer support.
The Wow Factor
I'll never get another pack again.
