Unhappy with these. I was looking for a "light" set due to arthritis in my fingers. The description says they are easier to press due to lower tension, but that's only on the wound strings. The A and E strings are still bare steel and this set uses regular rather than light strings. And those are the ones I have the most trouble with. I thought I could select my own light set from individual strings, but these are the only size they make. Maybe I could just buy light A and E strings, but then I don't know if the tensions would be balanced. I'll probably try it, but I with GHS made a proper light set of these strings.
