They are definitely worth the money. Great strings.

I missed out on the sale,....too busy with other things to catch on,...but I did follow them on twitter; even though I barely hit up my twitter account.
I asked on TB,...I've got my cart filled but haven't placed the order as I'm hesitant. With Warwick's tailpeice -> bridge design,...I'm unsure if I should go with standard scale (34''-35'') or medium scale (36''-37''). The answer is obvious,...but I just want to be sure as CKS seems reluctant to accept returns.

I just checked my account with CK (nice feature to recall previous orders); I had the standard scale CKs on all my Warwicks and not a problem.

You are a rockstar. Thanks mang. Funny how this tiny site has a better response rate than TB.
PS: Order placed.

After a month or so (and two gigs) with my Circle K strings on two main basses, I can say that it's definitely taking some getting used to dealing with the lower tension in the D and G strings, but the higher than normal tension in the B and E strings is fantastic. I love that the note sounds much more pure from the balanced set than any other strings I've ever had before. And they're less zingy than most other new strings I've tried, without being muddy like flats.

Glad to help out. I don't use them anymore (got an endorsement with GHS that I'm elated with), but Skip and the guys are really raising the bar for strings.
