A great set of strings..

I had some instability issues with tuning on an old hollow body guitar, these strings seemed to have rectified the issue, with locking the strings in place. The tone is just as I expected, mellow and not over bright, the flat wounds strings have a great tone and I’ll definitely be buying these strings again. The free fretboard map card was also a very nice surprise and very welcome. Read full review...

Good value for acceptable quality.

For flatwound strings these are good value compared to strings by other companies that cost twice as much but don't sound quite as good. I would recommend them based on the price but if quality is the most important thing go elsewhere.Read full review...

Value for Money

I have always found them to be top quaity, long lasting strings. They are also the lowest price in the market, and am at a loss to understand why other maufacturers charge so much for their versions. Have used them for 5 years and never had one break on me.Read full review...

Olympia Flatwound Strings Review

Pleased with the strings. Better than roundwound strings on an electric guitar.

Very brittle

I found that some of the strings were very brittle and I could break them at the ends just by bending with the fingers mostly G and D ..but you can use them if you are carefull..but only once.

Work well on a range of Fender type guitars.

These seem to work well on a range of Fender type guitars, Strat, Tele and Thinline. Give a much fuller tone, bridge pickup more useable. They last well, much less string noise being flat wounds.
