Perfect Nashville Set
Phosphor bronze EJ's are classic go-to budget strings. I love their sound right out of the package. I used to work at a world-renowned instrument shop and we'd send a pack of EJ's home with every new acoustic purchase, can't go wrong. Their tone doesn't hold up as long and they don't hold up to abuse as well as my go-to set that I use on my main instrument, but I always recommend these for folks on a budget or who don't really know what they're looking for. That said, for Nashville tuning you're largely dealing with unwound strings (only one string is wound phosphor bronze). The difference compared to higher end strings is far less significant. Also, you're string up for Nashville so you're either 1.) Gearing up for a recording session or 2.) trying to find something interesting to do with a spare guitar. For either use these are 100% the set to go with. If you're looking at these reviews to figure out whether you want to try Nashville tuning on your second guitar - yes you do! It's a neat sound and fun to play around with, can add an interesting depth to your recordings, and I even have a guy in our band playing one on a few tunes at a show this Friday. It's worth a couple of bucks to try it out.

Wincing in fear while tuning the G string
First time buying a set for Nashville high strung, and I was surprised that they chose a 9 gauge for the G string. I was terrified it would snap. Next time, I'll probably just put my own set together, because having that small of a string in the 3rd string position feels and sounds anemic, not to mention the fact that you have to use ultra light touch to avoid that one going sharp. Great string brand, great packaging, superb tone.

Some of the Best
I've been playing guitar for 25 years. I've tried hundreds of strings. Countless different setups. These have been my favorite for the past few years. I very highly recommend them.

Will not hold tune, break for no reason
I really hoped these strings were as good as some of the reviews made them out to be. At the price paid it seemed like a great buy. BUT, these strings are junk. They will not hold tune at all. I let them stretch overnight, still would not tune. I let them stretch overnight again, still would not tune, I was using a digital tuner. Suddenly the third string broke while I was trying to tune another string. I figured sometimes one string will break, but the next day the second string broke while I was trying to get the sixth string in tune. At this time I realized I was never going to get these strings in tune and that they would probably all break. I had order 2 packages, so I was using the second set to replace the one that had broken. I am returning both sets. Don't waste your money. These strings would not be a bargain if they were free.

Value
It was the cheapest option, but works just fine. Just needed the e string, but others seem fine too.

Cordas para afinação Nashville. Não é o conjunto de cordas de aço comum. As cordas mais graves são mais finas que o convencional. Tinha um violão parado aqui sem saber qual rumo dar pra ele, pois já tem um violão de aço superior. Foi então que vi uma entrevista do David Gilmour onde ele citou esse tipo de afinação. Achei muito interessante e comprei. Li que cordas de violão 12 cordas tambem servem, mas pra quê desperdício? Realmente deu outra vida pro meu violão. A sonoridade é muito interessante, muito boa para música folk ou sertanejo raiz. O som é meio eterio, praticamente sem graves. Com as devidas proporções na comparação, lembra um pouco uma viola capiria (um pouco). Mas Recomendo demais! Vivi até hoje sem o conhecimento disso, então caso estejam com dúvidas, pesquisem sobre afinação Nashville.

Sound amazing. Great strings. Makes your 6 string sound like a 12 string/ play with a bright light sound. Love the Nashville tuning.
