D'Addario Pro Arté Nylon Classical Guitar Strings, EJ46, Hard Tension, 6-String Set, Pack of 1

I'm getting back into nylon string guitar. I have a cheap classical that had broken strings so decided to give these a try. If you play steel string guitar as your main instrument, go for a high tension set. They're very easy to play and if you have strength built up from steel strings, these won't present any problems. In fact, I've needed to develop a lighter touch with both hands to keep things in control. These sound great. The bass strings resonate well and the three "nylgut" strings feel good and have a sweet top end. Overall I find them to be very balanced and pleasing to the ear. I've got no issues with these, but I'm also a novice nylon string player. I've grown my right hand fingernails a bit and I'm working on my classical right hand techniques.

I put these strings on my Alvarez hybrid classical/electric guitar. I'm giving them 5 stars because they're certainly high quality, but I'll also say that I probably wouldn't buy them again. As you'd expect from higher tension strings, they're a little bit harder on the fingers than the EJ45 strings. That's not such a big deal if you have calluses, but they still have a very different feel from normal tension strings, and I'm not really a fan of it so far. They also have a different sound. The base strings in particular are brighter and louder than D'addario normal tension strings. They have sort of a metallic twang to them that's hard for me to describe. As a result, these strings sound really good when I'm strumming chords, but when I'm fingerpicking a song, the bass strings tend to overpower the treble strings and I've had to adjust my technique accordingly. They almost make my guitar sound more like a traditional steel string than a classical. Overall, I don't think these are my cup of tea, but don't take my word for it. They're definitely worth a try, especially if you do a lot of strumming on your classical.

Bought these to replace the strings on my Classical Guitar. Bought them because they were advertised as being bright but also hard, and they are definitely both. The bass strings especially have much brighter/crisper tone than what I have used in the past and over all they are a little bit harder (under more tension). The downside so far is that they do not stay in tune very well, I've had them on the Guitar for a couple of months now and still have to tune every time I play, which is pretty much daily.

These high tensions have a brilliant warm tone, that works so well with a red cedar top. I'm starting on classical after many years so I'm trying out a bunch of strings over time These arte D'addarios sound so good they have blown me away. I'm also loving the Saverez 500CJ Crystal Corum killer feel. I'm going to have a blast trying these out over time, but I already I have 2 game changer so to always fall back on

Great seller good buy

Very disappointed. I was looking for nylon or carbon strings with flatwound bases for my classical electric guitar with piezo pickup, because finger noise from regular strings gets easily picked up and amplified. The pucture clearly shows polished bases so that they appear flat on the surface. I was mislead to believe these strings would therefore have lower finger buzz on bases because they are polished flat, like flatwound strings are. Alas this is not the case.. These strings are not even close to have polished bases to a flat surface as depicted. These are just regular round wire wound nylon bases. Even more dissapointing is that these strings come up in Amazon searches for "flatwound nylon guitar strings". Had to return. So hard to find flatwound nylon classical strings. I only found one so far, and hoped a respectable brand like D'Addario would have them, too... otherwise, I am sure these are good strings like all strings from this brand. Just don't buy if you are looking for flatwounds.

These are my go-to classical guitar strings for clarity and durability. They sound excellent for several months between necessary string changes. I don't perform anymore so just the occasional enjoyment at home is all I need. So good sound for a decent amount of time is important.

i was mentioned in another reviewers' post and labeled an elitest. guilty! in my 58 years i knew no other than Savarez's red card. i needed no review/opinion. in a vain attempt to minimize my shame my defense was there were no pro-arte strings. my guitars during those years were as varied as the guitars themselves. savarez will always be a 1st love. but all will agree variety is spicy. i don't stray anymore. i have a home and pro-arte hard keeps me there, so.................they make my instruments (all) sound far better. pleasing sustain and overtones for days. stays in tune and blends with other louder instruments. the tension you choose will be felt i assure you but start slow and low with somewhere to go.

Excelente calidad y relación costo/beneficio. Durables, sonido brillante.

Ótimas cordas , chegou rápido e tudo certinho , ótima projeção, tudo ótimo compra sem medo

Note - These are high-tension strings so it is advisable to change all the strings accordingly otherwise your guitar might sound different. This is my second purchase. I had originally needed only the 5th string, but since this particular product is only available in sets, I was obliged to purchase the entire set. The nylon strings are coated with a high-tension silver-coated copper which produces a bright acoustic sound initially, but after some time, the natural bright nylon pluck will become more prominent. I am somewhat sceptical regarding the longevity of these strings for up to 3 years and the high maintenance required, which includes avoiding pressure on the strings and storing them in optimal temperature conditions. Nonetheless, I am pleased with the overall build and quality of the product. For all classical guitar players, this product is an excellent choice, albeit a bit expensive in the price segment. Given that it is an imported product, there is little that can be done about the price. I wholeheartedly recommend this product.

Tensione Alta - EJ 46 HARD Queste corde hanno un buon suono corposo e convincente, sono facili da montare ed il packaging è ben curato. Ottimi i bassi molto caldi, cantini con un bel carattere, suono soddisfacente nel complesso e di buon volume. La tensione è alta al punto giusto, ma le sconsiglierei forse ad un chitarrista alle prime armi (meglio una tensione minore). Purtroppo devono notare che i bassi perdono spesso tensione con un utilizzo anche non eccessivo. Inoltre ci vuole una settimana o più per mantenere l'accordatura dopo il montaggio iniziale. Dopo 6 mesi resistono molto bene a conferma della buona qualità costruttiva e sono sicuro che resisteranno ancora nel tempo. Soddisfatto nel complesso, le ricomprerei.

Compré las D'Addario Pro Arté EJ43 para mi guitarra clásica y se sienten muy bien, sobre todo si buscas tensión ligera y comodidad al tocar. Lo bueno es que son suaves al tacto, mantienen afinación bastante estable y tienen un sonido cálido, ideal para practicar o tocar en casa. Además, al venir en lote de 6 cuerdas, tienes repuesto de sobra para un tiempo. Lo que mejoraría es que la primera afinación tarda un poco en estabilizarse, pero una vez se asientan, todo perfecto.
