Dean Markley2554 .009 - .046 Blue Steel Electric CL Guitar Strings

I've used quite a few different makes of guitar strings over the years but I have to say these are the best I ahave ever used so far! (Although I've not used this particular pack yet-I got them as I wanted some spares!) I play both rythm and lead guitar and these are ideal for that as they are good for both. I tend to do a lot of bends, slides and so on and these are ideal for that with them being lighter at the top end. I have had these on my customized superstrat for months and they have held up pretty well. I play for hours each day and they are still going strong! They are very good strings and I would recommend them!

Great sound

For a while now, i have been using cheapo strings. They were fine until i noticed the de-colouration of them, It was so bad that they started to look like acoustic guitar strings... really awful things. Then i saw these in an artical about jerry cantrell of alice in chains hehe... so i bought these, the price is fair.. I restrung my rampage with these and they are really good sounding feeling strings, will definitely be getting these again.. I recomend!!.

Nice strings holding out well with a clear and fresh tone.

For years I have used d'addario pro-steels and o thought I'd give these a try...wow! Glad I did! These are now my only go to brand. You can tell the are a smaller company than Ernie Ball or d'addario, as the packaging was basic and there was slight corrosion on the strings, but I just sanded them down before fitting and they were perfect. I play daily for about 1-2hours per day, alot of bending and heavy use and I still have the same set on my PRS and they are as clear as day 1 2 months later!Gary Moore used Dean markley, blue steels...should say it all!

When I started guitar 23 years ago my guitar teacher recommended these and I have never bought any other brands since except using the free packets they throw in when you buy a new axe from good guitar shops. I tolerate the other brand but once the DMs are on I really notice the superior quality. It is a shame that not many guitar shops stock them. it's usually the other well known brands. Glad to be able to buy them from the net now. Before, I was a sad J. R. Hartley type figure...

Before trying Blue Steels DT I've used to play on Ernie Ball Not Even Slinkys, which were very good but died fast after a week of hard playing everyday the sound was flat, devoided of life, it just wasn't the same. I tend to practice without amp sometimes, and love good sounding strings. Blue Steels gave me this crispy and very expressive sound, the sound that has soul. I love these strings.Update: Two weeks of playing speed and math metal every day for around 3 hours and they sound exactly like the day I put them on. They stay in tune for really long, I tended to tune guitar every day with EB, but with these it's once every few days.

I have tried most makes of strings over the years and now I have tried these they are my number one choice I have put them on all my guitars I didn't like the other ones in their range but these are brilliant would be better if where individually packed but apart from that no gripes recommend

I've been using Cold Steel strings on my electric guitars for nearly 20 years. They seemed to not be as available now in guitar stores like they once were (maybe it's just around where I live), so I order them from Amazon. Nice clear and bright sound, I use 10s on my electric, but don't use this brand on my acoustics. Not sure if the cryo process does anything to the string (lots of talk about that on the web for you to read about if you're interested), and I don't know that they sound all that much better than other strings that I've tried. For me, if I can get a set of these, then that's my first option to put on my guitar. I'm not a touring musician. I mostly play worship music at my church every Sunday, so my strings do get regular use. I typically replace them every few months (probably waiting longer than I should ... like many of us!).

Pour ma guitare

Si sente e si vede la differenza della qualità.

Un son que j'apprécie avec une oxydation minimum. Elles tiennent assez longtemps.

Dean Markley Saiten spiele ich schon seit vielen Jahren auf meiner Gibson Les Paul, da diese Marke unter anderem auch von Gary Moore gespielt wurde. Die Saiten sind leicht zu ziehen, klingen offen und hell. Die Haltbarkeit ist extrem gut, was mit Sicherheit auf die Kältebehandlung zurückzuführen ist. Verpackt sind alle 6 Saiten in einer verschweißten Plastiktüte, diese wiederum ist in einer optisch ansprechenden Umverpackung aus Pappe. Für mich definitiv einer der besten Saitenmarken. Ich finde es nur schade, das man diese Saiten wirklich nur schwer bekommt und im Markt einen eher negativen Ruf genießen, was ich absolut nicht nachvollziehen kann. Preis/Leistung ist Top!
