I?m a singer / guitarist from Dublin, Ireland ?? and decided to buy these strings to match the gold hardware on my guitars which look ? good , but when I fitted them and plugged into amp the sound was really great ? crisp clean with a sparkling effect, ?????

I'm not really a guitarplayer. But I hear the difference. These strings have a better feel, are thicker in sound and a lot warmer. I use them on all the guitars I have. The colour is great too.
A must have !

A nice touch...

...to complete the Red Special setup! I mounted these strings on a BMG Red Special and they look awesome. I certainly have good impressions if you stick to the Queen repertory, so I don't find them very versatile on other uses. But I bought 'em for the Red Special so, I am very satisfied. Will definitely buy more when the time comes.

This is what you need if you have a redspecial

These are not perfect but are the perfect match for your Brian May Redspecial. The only downside is that they don't last long.
They also have a very particular bright sound (which if you're into Brian May's sound you're going to dig)
