    Nice learning video. In your opinion, what are the best strings to use on entry level (sub $300.00 price range) Classical/Spanish Guitars in terms of sound quality. The guitars I played (in that price range) had like a plastic sound; I'm assuming strung with a low-tension nylon string (easier to play despite sacrificing in sound). I understand sound is subjective, but steel string guitars within that price range sounded better to me. Is there a difference in the quality of nylon strings? Not knocking anyone, just seems the term "nylon string" can be a varied composition, from fishing line to high quality guitar strings. In terms of manufacturing cost and price to the consumer, I could see how the lower priced guitars might have lower quality strings. Thanks, if you can respond.

    • @pengchen634
      @pengchen634 2 місяці тому

      Not sure your guitar has a solid top, the wood quality effect the tones much stronger than the strings. For $300 price range you may find a solid top one made in overseas , it may need lots hand adjustments to make it plays with easy action. I recommend D'Addario EJ45 Pro-Arte Nylon Classical Guitar Normal Tension Strings or la Bella 2001 normal tension strings. The new nylon strings will not stay in tune, need to keep tuning up very hour until 1 or 2 days later, the tone will reach the best level of its life. It usually last for a few weeks, then the tone quality starts to drop, but the strings are still good for practice. Thanks for watching! Please consider subscribing.

    Very nice video. I like the overall fuller and brighter sound of Savarez, although I like more the tender and beautiful timbre of the D'Addario normal tension (lower tension is dark). I am planning to experiment with different combinations of D'Addario Trebles and Basees from other tensions and brands until I find the sound I dream of. Thank you for your video.

      @@gianniq82 I think Savarez is more brilliant, also the tone last longer, I switch to med tension Savarez strings. They are easier to play than the high tension ones. Thanks for watching! Please subscribe.

    Thank you for the video! I've tried low tension but found a problem in a situation when I have a fretted chord and I add a finger for example, sometimes the previously fretted shift just a fraction of a mm and I can hear I'm out of tune, or I have to change the angle of wrist same thing happens, or I fret too hard. Was driving me nuts. No such problem with hard tension to my ears at least. Lately: Aquila Ambra, less nuance more 'in your face' tone which I like, and terrific volume.
