Pros & Cons
Pros
Hagstrom viking deluxe baritone. These strings are consistent throughout the batches. I wipe my string after each use, but these string last well over a year fine for me.
D'addario is the only company that makes 9. And if the. Fast shipping. I own around 20 guitars, and for years, this is theonly brand i use.
Cons
D'addario 10 gauge strings have numerous complaints about the high e string snapping easily. Gauge strings are not going to be better than the 10 gauge as far as longevity & stability are concerned.
Strings have a rough feel out of the box, for the thickness they sound way too tinny and have no bass response. The strings appear to be very brittle and broke at the peg. Very unsatisfied with these strings.
Highlights
Quality
Ghss pressurewound are good as well as ok with the round core cheap
I used to break strings like crazy with the boomers
Packaging/appearance
Out of the pack they have a really nice bright sound and the intonation is excellent
Competitiveness
These strings shine over and above others imho

I actually once tried some strings i believe if i remember correctly they were made by d and r they were actually red they looked awesome on my guitar but the tone was horrible the red color killed the sound of them

I used to make these strings for the fluids exactly they had little clips on them instead of having to cut off the ball ends or stick a plain end into the floyd and clamp it down i dont know why they stopped making them but i havent been able to find them for years

If you play 9s you have to have noticed the unevenness especially on the floppy b string
