Much better than diadario’s
Great strings - sound great. Good tension for lower strings too down to F# and even down to E

Beware on multiscale instruments
Very good feeling strings for drop E / D#, although due to my 8 string being multiscale (25.5"-28.3") the tension is uneven. I can see this by how the neck is being pulled, slight bow on the Low E, and slight backbow on high E. After having a warped neck on another guitar, this scares me. I'll be combining this .80 gauge string with a standard .10-.74 set in future
