Best sounding guitar strings I’ve heard.. I’ve been using D’addario phosphor bronze strings for years, they are nice but these sound way better. These strings give that brilliant and sparkly tone heard on many recordings of famous acoustic instrumental players like Don Ross, Hedges, etc..I always wondered how they got that bright and full tone while playing fingerstyle, I always thought it was due to higher quality woods on their guitars or something but now I am certain that it has a lot to do with using real bronze…
Great Tone I really like these strings, and I use them often. I play acoustic at a vineyard at least once a month. I can best describe the sound as bright, clean, and fresh. The lows and the highs are well pronounced. They are well rounded for many styles of playing, whether it be heavy strumming or finger-picking. I’d highly recommend these, especially if you are unsure as to which string to get. Start with these and then determine whether they are too bright for your taste, then maybe consider phosphor…
Finally found what I was looking for.
