I bought a set after reading about em and listening to the very limited YT video reviews. I'm wanting to give it a shot. They were almost 35 dollars shipped, so I hope they last a little longer than other strings. I heard so much good things about GHS Pressurewound from @michael_t, I wanted to give these type of strings (Alloy52) a shot.

More to come.. Anyone tried these?
 
I tried them because I am still looking for a replacement for the discontinued GHS Progressives.
I found them stiff and still very Rotosound. I left them on which isn't the case with other strings I've tried. So not terrible.

Agreed, they do sound very much like (broken in but not dead) Rotosound stainless steel strings. I also found the 45-105 set on the stiff side, but over a few months of use, either the strings loosened, or I got used to it.

I like Rotosound steel strings, so not really a tonal issue for me, but still looking forward to the promised return of GHS Progressives.
