anyone tried these?

I needed a quick string change on my LP and my Strat for a gig on Friday, and, since we just moved, I had forgotten to order some Snake Oils that I usually use.

The local Guitar Center had the nickel wrapped Hendrix strings, I actually wanted to try the vintage nickel ones, they are going to get some in for me.

Initial impression is they seem quite nice. A few tugs and they stick in tune, they ring really good. I don't know how long they last yet though.

just an update, I used this at our gig Friday night, IMO these are GREAT strings. I might like them as much as Snakes.

how would you compare them to DR pure blues?

Thanks.

sorry, I've never tried DR strings so I can't compare them.
