Customers are mixed about the fit of the musical instrument strings.

The length was fine, but there was nothing on the end to hold the string. However, some say that the diameter is a bit bigger on these, so the G string is a little bit bigger. The only negative is that the B string was too big for the slot in the nut.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The basses feel like a slightly larger diameter as well, but that doesn't really cause any problems for me. The one negative I'd include on these is that the basses seem to tarnish a bit more quickly than Pro Artes, and the sound of them begins to degrade from there.
Overall a great string for the price!
For the budget player (like me), this package of 3 sets for less than the price of 2 premium sets makes sense.
These strings won’t disappoint. Take your time to tie them correctly. Give them a few days to stretch a little. Enjoy your classical guitar with these Classic strings.
Top reviews from other countries
If somebody tells you to buy these strings for a steel string acoustic, they are complete idiots, and please don't listen to them. Nylon strings are only and only for use on classical and flamenco guitars. I'm going to be changing to the normal tension set soon, as Yamaha C80 comes with normal tension standard, and I feel the soundboard is rather tensed at the moment with these hard tensions on it..
So, make sure you know what your guitar can actually handle. You don't want to damage your guitar, I'm sure. 🙂
