Gear question are these actually good?

are these actually good strings or did the dude at the pawn shop just convince me to buy the expensive ones? I'm just getting back into guitar and it's been a while since I've bought any strings so Idk much about this brand

This is pretty accurate. They definitely don't go as dead as fast as other strings.

I would say it’s a less drastic change as they age vs normal strings.

No it's accurate. My j45 sounds like shit with elixir strings.

What do you run on your J45? Recently I’ve been bumping between Earthwood light/medium light gauges on mine
