History: I'm an active musician. Right now I play in a 4-piece rock and roll band. I enjoy all styles of music! I've been playing guitar since I was 10 years old. I also play mandolin.
Purchase: Bought these strings at Guitar center. Paid $13.99. I wanted to try the Gibson electric guitar strings. I've used them on my mandolin and acoustic, but never on my electric.
What I Like About This Unit: These are really nice strings. They're bright, as the name implies, but without the brittleness, and tinny sound of some strings. They wear well, and I've never had a problem with breakage. These strings stay in tune also. They're well packaged, and the 3-pack price is a nice way to save some money. A good deal from Gibson!
What I Do NOT Like About The Gibson Brite Wires Light Electric Guitar Strings: They're a little more expensive than some other strings, but the 3-pack price helps out! Also remember that you're paying for Gibson quality!
Brite Wires Light Electric Guitar Strings Quality: They're well made, and seem very consistent string to string and set to set. Gibson quality all the way! No tarnished strings in any of the sets I've bought, unlike some strings from other manufacturers.
Summary: Great sounding, quality Gibson strings! Buy the 3-pack and save some dough! I'd buy these strings again, without a doubt!
