To be honest, I just love the packaging of these.

As strings themselves, they are probably closer to 3 1/2 stars. They're nice because they are a blend between the tone and lifespan of the Earnie Ball and D'Addario.

To my senses, Earnie Ball Super Slinky have the best tone, but D'Addario last much longer. These basically sound like a fresh set of Earnie Balls once they hit the two month mark. In other words, these are the only strings I know of that peak way after you put them on.
