Have a horrible metallic tone
Very expensive. Have a horrible metallic tone. I did not like the strings. Also very hard on the fingers.

Muy buenas cuerdas
Un poco duras, teniendo en cuenta que pasé de 0.10 a 0.13 y mi mano se resiente con las cejillas, pero por el sonido que sale de estas cuerdas vale la pena soportar el dolor que produce. Mi acústica tiene la caja pequeña y aún así con estas cuerdas el sonido es espectacular, un poco más agudo pero muy bonito. Al principio la afinación varía mucho pero una vez las cuerdas se acomodan la variación es minima. Para evitar sobre estiramientos aconsejo hacer una primera afinación medio tono por debajo de lo habitual, y tocar un rato para que se acomoden poco a poco.

Best quality, sound & playability
I installed this set on my 1969 Guild Acoustic. I have went through so many strings in the past. I have been using these for 3 years now and I am only on my second set. Durable, long lasting, quality guitar strings. Smooth and softer on the fingers. Sure cuts down on the slide noise. I have also purchased these for my 12 string and will never switch back to cheap strings again. These last 3 times as long as the $10 cheap ones and would have lasted longer if I didn’t over tighten my strings from changing my tuning so much. Simply the best strings. I was happy when my new taylor GS mini guitar came with these strings in a med. gage already. The best sounding guitar with the best strings, what a great combo.

高音(1、2弦)の音色が深く鳴るようになった。
このライトゲージHDは普通のライトゲージよりも1弦と2弦が少し太く作られています。なのでこれまでは高音のパワーが少し足りないなとか、キンキンという音ばかりが強調されて耳障りだなと感じていたところが改善されましたら。低音から高音まで全体の音のバランスがとれてギターが良く鳴りますし、ハイポジションを弾いても芯のある音が出せます。おそらくマーチンのスプルースよりもギブソンのマホガニーのようなジャカジャカ弾くギターの方が変化を感じやすいかもしれません。

Great product
This is a replacement string for my acoustic guitar. Delivery time was fine and packaging ensured that it was delivered with no dents or bends. Excellent string with rich, full and smooth tones.
