I had never used these strings before I got my new Taylor 114CE guitar. Had the guitar setup and the technician recommended these Ernie Ball Earthwood strings because of the sound and the type of playing I told him I did. After the initial setup with the new strings I played for about 2 weeks and had noticeable tuning issues with the G but didn't think a whole lot about it. I brought the guitar back to the shop to get the action lowered. He replaced the strings with another pair of these Ernie Ball Earthwood strings. After about 3 more weeks of playing I finally realized this out-of-tune G string issue was getting out of control. I did some reading and realized others have experienced the same issue with these strings. The G is not a wound string so it always seems to sound a little "off" even when in tune. I would tune my guitar, play for about a minute and then re-check my tuning again. Not once did the G stay in tune...all the other strings were perfect. For the sake of experimentation, I replaced only the G string with an alternate string I had lying around and have no tuning issues whatsoever anymore. When the strings are in tune, they sound awesome. But constant tuning isn't an option when trying to play live.

I have only tried a few brands and varieties of strings so far, because ive only been playing guitar for about a year, but these are a great pace to start. Try them out at least! Very good sound.

I am a new guitarist but a musician of 15 years. I tried these strings out just to get a good idea of what other strings my sound like compared to the elixir brand. In my experience I have found elixir to have the best tone as well as longevity. The tone of these strings for my fender acoustic electric was a significant drop in quality. The tone is mediocre with the g string having a very metallic sound.

These strings are beautiful... The sounds coming out of my guitar are heavenly... Great resonation and sound! My guitar is a cheapy... But it sounds freaking great now! I cant stop playing now! Hahaha!

I mistakenly bought these, but a buyer should know that the G string is NOT wound. I bought the same Ernie Ball 80/20's with the wound G with an little E of 12 (live and learn). Those sound great.
