Is it just me

I'll tell you I just put on a set of 8s expecting super light performance. Wrong. These feel heavier than the 10s that was on it. **** hard to bend. I think they put the wrong strings in the box. I'll try ol Willies 7 gauge if that what it takes.

Bought to play Traditional Vietnamese music

I am a rock guitar player that has Vietnamese singers. And they wanted me to learn the song that has these really crazy wide bends. Vietnamese guitar players have super scalloped guitar necks that allows them to play really intricate phrasing and wide vibrato. And their bends can easily reach two whole steps! Long story short: I bought these I gauge 8 instead of my normal 9 gauge, read more and tried the newer NYXL instead of the XL series i normal buy... WOW! They sounds bigger and fuller than the thicker guage D'Addario's i normally use! They are also really responsive to soft and hard picking than the XL series. Softer finger picking sounds more delicate and sweeter. And they bend like crazy with no problem. I would not feel comfortable bending other gauge 8 strings like i do these. They normal are just too thin. But these handle huge bends like a champ. They are a few dollars pricier than other D'Addarios, but THEY ARE WORTH IT!

Truly Amazing!

I took a chance on these after watching the videos. I wanted to see if I could go super extra light on my Hofner Nightingale Special and keep the the same sound quality that I had with my D'Addario XL 10 - 46. I have carpal tunnel, so I wanted to be able to play longer without pain, but I didn't want to have a tinny crappy sound. I stuck these on as soon as I got them and I was read more BLOWN AWAY! They have amazing sound and I can play forever without even getting tired. I have to adjust my grip so that I am not pressing so hard, but it saves my hands. I am amazed at the sound quality. Also, they stayed in tune after about 10 minutes of playing. They don't take nearly as long to settle as any other strings I have used.
