IN110 Infeld Electric Guitar Strings - .010-.046 Medium-Light Review

Hi Quality with a relaxed feel.

So I play Tom Anderson Guitars, which have all have an inherent stiff string tension. Suhr guitars have the same sort of stiff string feel and high piano like string tension. With my Andersons I have always had to use Elixer Opti Webs for the guitar to be happy because they are built around those strings and don't really like other brands when I try them. I don't fully like Elixers… read more because the coated strings make me have a hard time gripping the low e and a strings when playing complex lead lines. I tried NYXL but they are too midrange heavy and lack brightness, and the Anderson does not like them very much. I just tried these Infeld strings and they are very high quality, as you would expect from anything made in Austria or Germany. They have the slinkiest and easiest feel of any string I have played, my Anderson now plays like a normal guitar, no more hard tension across the neck. Bends are super easy and they stay in tune and have great intonation. They feel more like 9.5 gauge strings than 10 and have a silky feel. The only down side is they lack bottom end, and the brightness can create some busy harmonics with overdrive that smear or blur the tone a bit. I also had to raise the action a bit to compensate for these having a more relaxed tension. If I could get these to have more natural bottom end response and and less brashness in the highs, they would be perfect.
