Surprisingly good
I've been experimenting with strings for a while now. For years I've mostly been a fan of GHS Boomers because they always felt like a nice middle ground between Ernie Ball's and D'addario's. These were actually more of a curiosity buy just because they were so cheap and because of that my expectations were a little low. What a surprise these were! They feel stiffer than the Boomers (but still slinkier than the D'addario's) and that took some getting used to but as a trade off my guitar holds tuning a lot better. The clarity and brightness is what surprised me the most, and with a wipe down after playing the life has been pretty impressive as well. I've gone from being sceptical to completely sold on them, no more messing about jumping between brands. These are my new go to strings. At this price they're worth at least trying out and you really can't go wrong.

Roto replacements!
I have been using Roto Blues @ 10-52 for years, partly because they are affordable and partly for the extra 1st string But I fancied a change after hearing good things about these Dean Markley LTHB.
I'm suprised at how bright they sound and for how long they stay bright, my previous brand would stay bright for a couple of hours playing maximum, but I've now had these Markleys on 2 guitars and each has had around 6 or 7 hours playtime, and they are still sounding fresh!
Sure I don't get a spare 1st string, but I don't break many as I'm a reasonably light touch on the guitar and the price Thomann does these string for makes it affordable to just buy another few sets!
They seem to be decent at keeping tune too, no better or worse than the other brand I've been using, so that's another good point.
I can see myself using these in the far distant future, especially if the price stays as keen as it is now!
Thanks Thomann!

Just to try 10-52
I usually play with 10-46 strings and bought these strings to try higher gauge for the three bottom strings. This set was among the cheapest. Having tried on my Les Paul Tribute, it does its job with a nice sound that lasts long enough.

Dean Markley 2504B LTHB
I've been using Dean Markley strings ever since I started playing guitar. I've never played better strings. They are reliable and sound great and last very long. They are pretty cheap so I change them about every month or so. They stay in tune and you can shred the f**k out of them without worrying that they snap.

Best quality/price ratio you'll find
I'm using Dean Markley strings on all of my guitars from standard E to drop B tuning and they are doing their job perfectly.
Although finding strings that match your desired tone and feel is always a matter of personal taste, these strings to me not only sound and feel better than Ernie Balls or D'Addarios, they are also less expensive.
Never had any tuning problems with them either, no matter if on a fixed bridge or on Floyd Rose guitars.

Great /Strings at a low price
For me the best value for the money.
They are much better than the Harley Benton ones and not much more expensive, the custom gauge is great.
The sound is perfect, bright.

Nice
Feels nice to play, sound great and have a very interesting price point. My high E-string did snap though but that was probably because of me. Nice LTHB strings for the price.

Very high-quality strings. To use them for the first time, but very satisfied. My guitar sings like never before.
