I never changed strings until a few weeks ago but ever since I tried them I immediately smiled when putting them on my sg. And what great value! Made in England

I'm in a Brit Invasion cover band so the chimey treble description appealed to me.
Had the worst time with breaking strings; no wonder they include an extra E. However, all my strings were breaking. Other people on line suggested that it had a short tail that when bent over a wraparound bridge, became a point of failure. I agree. I also found the nickel strings hard on the hands. I went back to D'Addarios and haven't had an issue sense.

These ones feel great to play, and sound great for me. I tried some expensive strings and hated both the sound and feel. I tried another regular kind and they were ok, but these are better. Couldn't get back to roto fast enough. And you get a backup high E string every time.

As long as they are the right gauge for your fingers and guitar; how can you go wrong at 1.10 per string? Taxes be damned.

There are better strings for the gigging artist, but Roto Pinks are great for people not changing strings as often. They start out a little bright, and then settle in for a long time before needing to be changed. I find them to be a good value because I am not changing strings as often. Keep them clean, and they'll last quite awhile.

I like these strings. They have a nice feel. I've been using these on two electrics for a while now but switched one semi-hollow to use something else (flat wounds) so just have this set on one guitar now.
It's great to have an extra thin E-string included (probably the one to break if any do).
I haven't had any kind of tuning problems at all.

More definition than super slinky. I think I found a new set of strings. Very playable.

Thank you for your comment Travis. This is what I was looking for. I use 11's "Roto" flatwounds on my jazz guitar and 11's round ones on my blues/rock baby. Love them both but 11's round ones seem to be a bit heavy for bluesy bending. Your hint helped me to drop the size one step down instead of trying some other (who knows what) brands. I love "Rotors" and am glad to stick to them (just downsize them a bit). Cheers "HW" ?
