...Dovetail strings.

My band has been offered a possible 'part-time endorsement' and Im curious as to hear from any one who has used these strings.

What are they like? Tone? Feel?

Cheers.

They're a British company and I know and have found very little about them, Im very keen to know what people think of their strings.

Never mind, not to worry!

If they are offering you some free strings take them, I can't see how they can check up on you to make sure you use them and you never know they might be good.

going by their website... slightly higher gauges described as "light"

and £5 a pack more than status graphite Hotwires round core.....

Thank you for the input every one!

Ive heard back from them, and the deal isnt too bad! Of course minimum orders and all that biz, but they help band with promo and such, ie album/ single releases. They promote the bands name in return for the band promoting theirs. As you'd expect.

Demand they send you 10 packs atleast before you agree as you want to test "lifespan and tone" of the strings!

I have heard of this company before...

If I recall the endorsement results in "trade price" strings which are only a tad under a set of roto's or Ernie Balls off the internet.

My friends band has also been endorsed by these fully.

It seems like they are going around ciries endorsing loads of bands and making a sort of marker that way.. I can't comment on what they sound like, but endorsing bands to get their name out is definitely whay they are doing. Wether its for their own promo or they make money by making bands feel they are getting a good deal I have no idea.

A few other bands in my city have also been offered endorsements, but only 1 has accepted it as fae as I know so far due to nobody lnowing the brand.
