My father God Rest his soul, played bouzouki for almost 50 years. I still haven't been able to pick up his instrument because I can't get past the emotional feeling I get without him. It's been 18 years since I lost my pops.

Play it, You will find you Father again. For 50 years that instrument is charged with an immense charge of your dads energy. Call me crazy but i believe one can draw from that well as i did from my late grandmothers Piano. After which i always look for instruments with a story and history from other long gone passed players.

My son passed away in 2005 . He and I both played guitar together. After his passing I couldn't pick up any guitar for about 6 years. Then I finally decided to keep his legacy alive by playing guitar again. So now I play guitar in his memory. It's a way for me to continue his/our music journey. BTW sorry for the loss of your Father

Just got d'addario folk nylon strings in black and brass. They have so much more impact than the strings my guitar came with. They're a bit rougher on my hands, but the warmth and crazy volume they get are very worth it. I also got a new set of tuners because the old ones couldnt hold a note for very long. Counting the strings, i spent 80 dollars total and it sounds better than my 300 dollar guitar.

For many years, following a video where I saw John Williams applaud the strings Ddario EJ45lp, I have used these strings. The 'lp' at the end stands for Lightly Polished whereby the bass strings are not as coarse as general strings are and they cut down a lot of unwanted screeches, squeals etc and these sounds have no place in guitar music-making. Ddario EJ 45 lp !! the best strings and definitely worth the extra funds that they cost.

Thanks for this informative video. Perhaps next time you might consider showing how the strings look and sound on a guitar for comparison. Thank you

It's good to see the owner of SBM talking. It is the best string retailer in the world. ❤

Hola miguel me gustaría hacerte una pregunta. Yo toco una cordoba gk studio pero la toco como si fuese una acustica de cuerdas de acero, con pua y tal (no me gusta el sonido de las acusticas) y he usado cuerdas savarez casi siempre. Me gusta bastante su sonido pero llevo buscando bastante tiempo alguna tercera que fuese entorchada para que tenga un sonido mas parecido al de una acustica ya que el sonido de esa tercera sin entorchar que tienen las cuerdas clasicas no me gusta nada. Me recomendarias alguna marca que la haga o me recomiendas algun juego de cuerdas que se adecue mejor a mi manera de tocar la guitarra? Saludos!!!!

Anybody have any knowledge or experience with the Luthier brand strings that SBM sells on their site? It's the only place I've ever found them. I tried them on a couple of my ukuleles, and I was really impressed I thought they were clearly better sounding than other brands I've tried, but I'm certainly no expert. I'm considering trying them for a classical guitar as well, just still trying to learn what all the differences are.

I was trying 6 types of aquila... They experiment a lot with materiale.... Like nylgut.... Atifical Gut.... Vegetable nylon.... Its very interesting to try them and compare to others.... Different sound..... Different feel on fingers.... Like squiking Aquila Sugars....

Is this really the ultimate guide? I'm always looking for the least tension string I can find. So far I haven't found it! It would be nice if all classical string manufacturers gave the tension of the string. What is the least tension? Then you could say its the Ultimate string guide!

Thanks so much for this. Strings choices are just way too confusing. I wish all of the brands would put a page with a comparison of sound - like Aquila does - That would let a player at least eliminate some from their list to try. I have found probably more than 10% difference between strings though. Pro-Arte was my go to for many years but experimenting with Aquila Rubios and Sugars now.

Question. I've been playing guitar for like 30 years and i bought my first classical guitar and i love it. 1983 hirade model 5 near mint. The playing style i have is i bend the strings alot. I'm pretty sure on classical guitars you aren't really supposed to bend the strings but i just can't help it. So, if a guy needed the best classical guitar strings for bending the notes what would the qualities be? A higher tension string? Thinner strings?

@MiguelFerreyraGuitar

Жыл бұрын

Classical guitarists bend strings too! It’s used In vertical vibrato and string bending is employed more like a rock guitarist would in some modern compositions for classical guitar. I highly recommend D’Addario EJ45 Pro-Arté normal tension strings. If you use hard tension, they will project better, but it will be harder to bend the strings.

Como estas Miguel, Yes I tried D'addario Ej43 they sound good. They sound very close to La Bella 2001 light tension. I tried the Martin&Co m265 trebles and LaBella LT basses. For me, maybe not for everyone I was happy with the sound was getting. Because I'm tight with money I ended up buying a 10pack package of LT tension LaBella from strings by mail. The other way is too expensive, string mixing.. Check the guages on those strings It make a sound difference. Con cuidado Buen dia.

This question is a little difficult to understand. Higher tension strings give more punch and shorter sustain, but also increase action height by pulling the neck up more, and by most criteria have LOWER playability than medium tension strings. They simply require more force to fret. The exception is higher tension can give a little more precision as they don't mush around sideways quite as much.

Late reply time, I have an ancient Hofner and I've experimented with a few strings as it doesn't like ordinary or high tension strings due to it's neck being probably a bit past it's best. I ended up trying the Augustine Blacks and I must say, I'm very happy with them. They have a nice range of sound depending on your picking, tension is certainly lower than standard and they've lasted well. According to the packaging, they are the strings Andre Segovia used and he may know a thing or two about classical guitar. They also do other "colour" strings which cost more too, I haven't tried them yet but I intend to fairly soon. Give the Blacks a go, hopefully they'll work on whatever you're playing too.

Always loved Hannabach extra hard on my light Granada guitar. Their bass strings were always god awful quality. I've had some snap while I was putting them on and many after a just a few days. But, sadly nothing else sounds as good on my guitar.
