Good String Gauge but not my favorite Strings
As advertised the string gauge works very well for the Boden series.
The tuning is stable, although most of that probably comes from the bridge and not necessarily from the strings.
The tone is a good allrounder but not bright enough for my taste.
Furthermore I've been an elixir fan before buying my first strandberg, and wile the boden strings are good, they can't compare to elixir strings in tone, squeak reduction and logevity.
Furthermore I've had a three week old boden set break a string during a live performace, which has traumatized me a bit.

Great stability, very good clarity. I use them on my single scale (673mm) Schecter KM7 and am quite happy.
If anything at all, the custom string thickness and therefor different tension (you'll need to adjust the neck relief and bridge coming from ernie ball, dr, so on...) does take a moment to get used to, but you very quickly appreciate that you can really destroy the lower strings for rhythm and still sing in leads. These are definitely worth a buy and they'll save you A LOT of money over time.

works very well with the strandberg 7 strings
After trying different sets I finally decided to settle with this set and I have to say that these work now very well for me.

Non-standard caliber - the best solution for a multi-scale neck!
9.5-64 is the sweet spot for fast play with lots of bends and enough attack! If your guitar has a multi-scale neck, then these strings are just right for properly balanced playing, and even more so if you have a strandberg! The most comfortable strings, both for standard tuning or Db tuning, and drop, where the seventh string has enough thickness for this.

Good price, but...
I bought several packs, but some of them came with oxidised darker spots straight out of the bag (badly stored?), especially the thinner E, B and G strings. This kinda compromises playability, durability, and sound...
First time it happens, will update the review with the next batch (as I'm reordering them soon).

Great
They are as good as the NYXL sets. Sorry Thomann, but they are.

Good regular strings
They don’t stand out with any “special” sound, like fancy brand strings made from “incredible” materials. Just a good working consumable
