Thought I would post the link below, as I have just placed an order for another four sets.
It's not the first time that I have used these strings, they are the least expensive strings that i have used, and in my opinion are equal to or better that most of the top make, named strings, in quality of packaging, quality of strings, sound/tone, and just how long they last.
I use 11s but other gauge sets are available.

I've just bought another four packs of these Legacy make strings, must be the best value strings on the market, unless you know a better less expensive guitar string.
Tried to buy some more of these strings about a month ago, but they were out of stock, think the word is getting out just how good these strings are, can see them going up in price soon.

I don't know if this is true or not, my memory's a little rusty on this one, but I heard that there's only about 4 or 5 guitar string manufacturers in the world. The rest of the brands get all their strings from one of those. Then, the brand will do their own thing to the string like maybe put specific ball ends on them, their specific coatings and etc.

But I can't recall how accurate that is and I'm too lazy right now to look into it.

"Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will
give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I
am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your
souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."
- Jesus, from Matthew 11:28-30

TonyKgull,

I'm sure you are right, that's the main reason I tried these strings in the first place.
And to be absolutely honest they are equal to any other uncoated string I have tried.
Still trying to see how long they last, seem to sell my guitars before it's time for a change of strings, have got four to five weeks out of them so far and still sound great with out any discolouration.

Found out recently these guitar strings are manufactured by "Rotosound".
