A pleasant surprise (but expensive and don't hold tone for long)
Must admit, I was initially sceptical about trying these strings on my Ortega Guitarele, which I bought essentially as small practice guitar to carry on my touring bicycle.
To my surprise and delight, these strings work very well, good tension with a deep, rich tone and decent projection.
Just be careful when installing them, as the three (red) low strings can begin to unwind at the ends if you pull them too hard.
It took a couple of days for the tuning to settle, but all is stable now, the intonation is somewhat improved, and I'm pleased with the sound and playability. Nice looks too.
Expensive but worth it if you want to turn your guitalele into a mini, standard-tuned guitar.
*update* after about one month I found that they became rather stale and lost their projection. They hold their tuning but they just seem more quiet than initially. For the money I expected they would last longer.

Great Strings
These strings are lovely and have a great sound. They are quite thick but that is fine once you get used to it. I will definitely buy again.

Lovely quality
I used these strings on a Yamaha guitalele to convert it into a small guitar for my then 5yo as he wanted a guitar like Mummee. It has worked brilliantly, perfect size for his little hands. The strings themselves are good quality, nice to play and most importantly sound beautiful. I also like the single red string as it helped with him identifying the different strings esp useful if you are trying to get him to only play the bottom three strings whilst holding single finger chords.

Turn your guitalele to a mini guitar
Very good sound with guitar tuning, and somewhat louder than original strings.
Red/brown string colors look very nice on my Persimon Brown version of Yamaha GL1.

italian quality
immediately mounted on my guitalele yamaha gl1, replacing the stock strings. I left them settling for 24h and the sound changed drastically. it keeps the tuning better and can also be tuned in A key.
The price is slightly above average but i just have to wait and see their resistance and duration on the instrument.
