520B Traditional Low Tension Classical Strings

Very fine strings for high end classical guitar. I've been playing classical guitar for 59 years (you'd think I'd be good by now...well for an old guy I am!) I've been playing somewhat professionally for decades and since the early 2000's I'd been using most D'Darrio strings- mostly hi-tension but lately low tension. I bought an expensive high end double top Australian guitar a few years ago and I love the big booming sound but I've been struggling with playability in some passages. I started with D'Darrio high, then medium, then light but with limited success. So I noted the overall poundage on the various sets and discovered the Savarez (which we all used back in the 1970's) was a few pounds lighter than the D'Darrio and what a difference that made in a lot of good ways. The guitar sings and sustains better and difficult passages have become significantly more playable. The harmonics are clearer. I will use these from now on!

Quality strings for classical guitar. Hold their tone well

These are great strings that I have been using for many years. Because of the wound G and B they have a full fat sound. The only drawback is they tend to produce more string noise as you move along the fretboard so you need to be conscious to lift when changing chords.

Really great strings perfect for the classical sound

It’s great for beginners/intermediate, great sound, and easy to play a lot of challenging songs. Low tension strings have a bad rep because people like to say they’re for wimps. WRONG, they’re for people who just wanna play their guitar comfortably (do not listen to arrogant guitarists). The labels were easy to read, and it was easy for me to string up quickly. Also, if you have a sensitive bridge that gets undone, these will be perfect since the strings won’t be pulling through as hard like regular strings. I highly recommend Savarez as a brand too. I’ve tried their high tension strings 500CJ and the sound was amazing! Will forever stick with Savarez!

Always used D'Addario. I after reading some reviews decided to give these a try though slightly more $. I like the little nib at the end of the treble strings so you know the bridge end. Normal tension sound fine, though next time I think I'll try the high tension.

These strings are kind to the fingers and great at any price

I've been playing classical guitar since 1983. These strings are roughly the same as most but different in the sense that the top three nylon-only ones have a rough texture to them, which is new to me, but I find I like it a whole lot! They seem to need more stretching out time than others I've used, even by the same company. The tone is awesome! They have a great tonal and frequency range and they project very nicely! All in all, I recommend them. You can't go wrong with Savarez! Rock on, players!
