I was just curious for the feel of another version of light top/heavy bottom set and gave it a try. Quite a change after Zakk Wilde boomers, ha, ha. YJM are very playable and allowed me different style of playing, light pressure, easy licks. They were keeping their sound for two years of not frequent playing, GHS Fast Fret was sufficient to revive them to life every session.
CONS. 008 string has pulled itself out of the ball end. As I had no replacement at hand, I used crude repair: wound down the string, put on a ball on a low end, made a knot on string with thin pliers (don't pull too tight not to broke the string), then wound up the string again. It needs some force-bending of the string to properly set the knot, yet it will hold then. Cut the string short and cover the sharp end not to get sting with it.

Good, but with some reservation

Comfortable playing blues with ST and T style guitars playing lots of bends, especially if you don't have lots of strength in your left-hand fingers.
Right away the G string sounded dull and after a fortnight the string was totally out of tune, so I had to change the string already.
I am not really convinced of the quality of these strings but I will try out a few more sets of these strings.

Nice packaging but I was maybe a little unlucky with those as one of the strings from the first set I tried snapped right where the string meets the bullet. Quite annoying. Aside from this little accident, the set is quite extreme in terms of gauge but it's worth a try if you are a YJM fan.
