I use them for the past few months.

I always used Dean Markley Blue Steel. Why? Probably because when I started the guitar, we had to tell me something like "this is the best," and had not necessarily been sought further. Since then, I tried a little while without success (Ernie Ball -> a shit, too fast and oxidized break just by looking, Skull -> can, yucky, "raspy" and too expensive for its rotten Elixir -> too expensive for a longer life far from being checked ...). But not D'Addario. Probably the syndrome "is the cheapest, so it must be the shit."

And then came my last scraper mounted on D'Addario. And then the revelation: they are strong, slightly oxidized (slower than the blue steel anyway), have a good sound (it, OK, it's completely subjective), and most importantly, have lots of little things Cool: the plastic bag closed to prevent them from oxidized before being mounted, the balls of color (that's all stupid, but super ergonomic), sold in packs of three for the price of 2 games .. . Above all, they cost, according to the stores, nearly half of the other games of rope.

In short, it adopted, with the regret of not having tried it before and have scorched the tune for nothing in other products, the main benefits seem to be only marketing ...
