I used to only put these on my Chet until the store that sold them in bulk closed.

I did actually like them a lot for the Chet. They are a light gauge so that and the great playability of the Chet's neck really helped pin down a lot of the Dave riffs back in the day, as well as some acoustic lead stuff. I use a slightly heavier gauge for my true acoustics, but I toyed with many types of strings on the Chet and I always came back to these.
