I was looking for the more mute sound of nylon strings, but didn't feel like shelling out money for a classical guitar. I found these strings and have been using them for about 2-3 months now (time has lost meaning this year).I was skeptical that these would sound decent based on some of the reviews here, but I've been pleasantly surprised so far. I installed these in my Ovation Applause guitar, replacing the Elixer steel strings. While the Ovation bridge probably would have allowed me to get away with regular wrap nylon strings, I went the ball bearing route since I didn't know if the wrap around nylon strings would introduce too much foreign stress on the bridge.Installing the strings was easy, but I recommend leaving less excess string than you normally would while threading the tuners, or you'll end up with alot of string wound around the tuners like me (ignore the toddler finger smudges in the pics). Once strung, I adjusted the truss rod to relieve tension (made about 4-5 full left rotations) to try and minimize any potential fret buzz, and reduce the chance of string snapping.The strings took about a week to really settle and not drop flat a full note every 10 minutes, but once settled and tuned, they sounded fantastic. Since the neck is slimmer than a classical guitar, and nylon G,B,E strings are thicker than it's steel counterparts, I initially found my fingers a bit crammed, and rolled off the strings many a times. After a bit of practice to adjust, I found these strings have a great mellow sound that I've been chasing after, and perform really well for $15 strings. If you are looking for a nylon sound, but don't want to spend ~$150 for a cheap classical guitar, these strings are a solid choice.

No one string is best for all guitars or players. We all know that right?Ok, so I wanted to try these out as they sounded like they would be right for me.I have an old late 70s Hondo guitar. Great little classical guitar designed for beginners (which is me).These strings suit it quite well and are excellent quality.I love the gauge of the strings. The diameters are larger than the strings they replaced (Ernie Balls) and I think the bass strings are perfect for a classical acoustic guitar. I actually prefer the thinner trebles to these, but in ratio to each other the set feels good.The strings are very light tension though. That is good if you want something softer on the fingers, but I actually think it is harder to hold because of the thickness of the string vs the tension they are under. It probably isn't anything good or bad, just me needing to get used to it more.Speaking of light tension though, be careful stringing your guitar. I broke my E string by being stupid and tightening it too much. Then a day later the e string snapped. I chock that up to my error, and not a reflection of the string quality, but I was having a hard time tuning it right.Tuning of these has been a bit of a pain. It was very hard for me to get the initial tune. Then once I did, the strings need to be constantly re-tuned. This is normal, but I think it feels a bit excessive for these. Specifically the e and G strings have been pesky. The first string has been double the joy since it snapped and I replaced it (so started the break in process all over again). My G string could be my guitar. While nothing is wrong with my guitar, the G has always been a little finicky. I think that is just amplified with these particular strings.My only other critique of the strings themselves would be they are noisy. Since the bass strings are nice and thick, and also uncoated, they scream out as you slide your fingers across them. I don't actually mind that too much for my play style and skill level, but I know a lot of people hate that.Other than that I think these have a terrific sound.The sound is distinctly different than most strings I have heard. It seems cleaner, but not sharper.They ring out very loudly, which is great for my play style (finger picking/strumming). Strumming with a pick is ridiculously loud. Mind you, I don't have a large body guitar so the acoustics are not amplified very much on a normal basis. But with these strings it really helps the sound amplify and carry.These string are not right for everybody. I'm sure there are those guitars that the strings just don't sound right on, but I really think they have a good feel and sound for a classical guitar so they are definitely worth a try. I love them and am not sorry I bought them.
