D'AddarioGuitar Strings - Pro-Arte Classical Guitar Strings - EJ45TT Dynacore - Silver Plated Wrap, Composite Dynacore, Titanium Nylon Trebles - Normal Tension, 1-Pack

I'll start with what I like about these strings. The strings wound in metal reach note stability really really quickly. The tension is just right for me. It has an easy action while not feeling sloppy under the fingers. Also the strings are very nice to play with nails, just gliding.The low E string comes with less wire around the lower part making stringing up easier (see in picture 2)The sound quality it very nice (although the G string isn't my favourite). The lower notes have a nice sizzle to the and nice 'n' sweet on the upper strings. Very balanced sound.Things I'm not so keen on!! Apart from the low E string, these strings are a pain to string up. Like slippery eels! The G string can sound a bit tubby sometimes (although that common with most strings). The upper 3 strings take a while to settle. So if you're playing a concert, string up with plenty of time to break them in.Over all they're great strings. Takes some time to set up but it's worth it in my opinion

These D'Addario EJ45TT strings are expensive yes but well worth it. After putting them on I heard the clarity straight away, they produce a strong rich bass end and the trebles (even the G) just sparkle. After the tuning settled down & as I played more & more they just got better & seem to continue to get better.I can't vouch for their longevity but quite frankly I don't care because I won't hesitate to buy them again whenever they need replacing. These strings just enhance the joy of playing .......I hope this helps......July 2023 about to restring with the same, truth is the originals are still sounding pretty good, so the longevity speaks for it's self. I do not play classical mega amounts but still quite frequently. These are the best classical strings I have ever used .............

Bought these (normal tension) for a Yamaha Silent Guitar and the impact on the sound was pretty transformational. That's the good news.The bad news is that they're very slippy and very tricky to fit - especially at the headstock end where the trebles continued to slip out of tune for at least a week after fitting. The novelty of re-tuning after every piece wears pretty thin, pretty quickly. However, they do eventually settle down.The E bass has a loose wound end - D'Addario say this can be fitted either end, but if you choose the bridge (as I did), make absolutely sure the loose wind is not part of the vibrating string. You must lock at the bridge with at least two twists on the wound strings and three on the trebles. It's also a good idea to lock the tags underneath the adjacent strings (Taylor style) as this looks great, eliminates buzzing and guarantees no bridge slippage (see picture).You'll just have to work out your own solution for the headstock, a powered string winder or an extra pair of hands definitely helps - as you need to retain tension as you lock and wind on the string.

I don't normally write reviews but I honestly have to recommend these strings. It's always very interesting to see how big an impact one set of strings can make compared to another on the same guitar, particularly the classical guitar. I'm terms of sound these are impressive to say the least. Warmth, clarity and sustain in the trebles, firm, nutty resonance in the basses. Tremendous volume and just a feeling of assurance. In terms of feel, this may be more difficult to make a recommendation because it's very personal to the player. These are hard tension strings and it's the first time I've experimented with hard tension. All I can say is they are a pleasure to play and I much prefer that slightly firmer feedback from the instrument. I've just moved from Saverez crystal corum normal tension. They're good stings but I was actually struggling with them. Generally too thin I think. I'm really pleased I decided to try these particular D'Addarios. They are certainly somewhat more expensive but for me very much worth it.

I bought a Paulino Bernabe M5 last year and have been delighted with it; when it came to changing strings, I tried several different makes and none came anywhere near the singing quality of Bernabe's own strings. These make the guitar sound wonderful, particularly the trebles, but they have two problems - they are very expensive, and the basses aren't very stable. I heard about the D'Addarios, and read that the basses are very stable when changing tuning e.g. "D" tuning the 6th, so I though I'd give them a try, just for the bass strings. They are great - the basses stay in tune extremely well and I thought I'd try the first to see how it compares with the Bernabe (the others I tried all sounded muted and muddy in comparison). To my surprise and delight, the 1st from this set is as pure and clear as the Bernabe 1st! At half the price of Bernabe strings, I think I'll be buying these from now on!

It was the first time trying these strings (Titanium Trebles Normal Tension) and they do sound different, much louder or expressive and a more metallic. At least on my classical guitar thy sound less warm and there a is certain "twang". This is neither good nor bad it just sounds fresh to me.For me they were easy to string, and after a couple of days the settled nicely.Also they feel quite nice to play or to touch.

If only my playing was as good as these strings.

Not worth the extra cost, the three treble Titanium strings are no better than the standard strings and the Bass strings are just standard strings.I don't think there worth the extra cost.
