Great price for a classic string set. These are my first set of Boomers in at least a decade or more, they really are great strings and made right here in the USA. Having played flats for several years, these have a bit more tension than other rounds which i like, you can set your action very low without fret buzz. In addition the highs are much more subdued, even right out of the package and you don't have to wait for the twangy brittle zing to go away. As they break in, the lower mids become more pronounced, they have a nice warm sound but still retain enough on an "edge" to cut.
