Reviewed in Brazil on August 16, 2021
Sempre ouvi falar muito bem, mas achava caro. Desde que comecei a usar violão de nylon, sempre usei a Classic Hard Tension EJ27H. D'addario sempre foi minha marca preferida para meus violões de aço e também nas minhas guitarras.
Custo benefício e durabilidade, já usei quase todas as marcas e D'addario sempre se mostrou melhor!
Toco no mínimo 3h por apresentação e coloquei essa Pro Arté na segunda-feira passada, hoje uma semana.
Tive 5 apresentações de 3h cada, no mínimo, mas em todas passou desse tempo e se estivesse usando a Classic EJ27H, hoje teria que trocar, pois estariam muito marcadas e escuras, com a corda D(ré) quase sem som, bem ruim de tocar.
Quero aqui dar os créditos devidos a essa Pro Arté EJ46.
Mas como eu toco muito Sertanejo e uso palhetas, meu instrumento com a Banda tem que ser o violão de aço e faço bastante solos, então tento fazer tudo isso com o nylon. O som dos bordões são ótimos, bem projetados e limpos, só que nos solos sinto sinto que a 1a(e) e 2a(b) cordas são muito macias, elásticas e não sai um som firme.
Mas isso é para palhetadas!
Então sugiro, para quem usa o nylon como eu a Pro Arté EJ31.
Ela tem, nas primas, um pouco mais de tensão, acho que será uma boa solução para os solos usando a palheta.
Perdoem-me o texto longo, mas é preciso compartilhar experiências.
Quando usar a EJ31, vou deixar um comentário lá também.
Um abraço a todos e bons Shows!
