The HRS Crazy Eights from La Bella deliver well balanced sets for either standard or drop-key tuning. These strings are made with thicker cores and have the correct tension for detuned riffing, while at the same time preserving the feel and overtones for guitar solos in the higher registers. The HRS Crazy Eights are the ultimate in Rock guitar strings, with the nickel-plated steel round wound strings, bright sound, and long lifespan you can't go wrong. Rock on!
