SavarezNew Cristal Cantiga Premium Hard Classical Guitar Strings Set (STSAV51-50486)

These are the strings that Irina Kulikova uses on her spruce-top guitar. As spruce-top guitars tend to have a brighter timbre than other guitars, and whereas the top three strings (the high e, the b, and the g) are nylon instead of carbon, this set helps my spruce-top guitar to have a rounder sound on the high e, b, and g strings. The three low strings (low e, a, and d) in this set produce a wonderful combination of brightness on the attack followed by a lovely, and deep, roundness in sound. This is a high-tension set, and to me the strings feel like the good-old Savarez yellow-card set of nylons that I used to buy forty years ago. When I play my spruce-top guitar with these strings on it, the whole guitar vibrates more than with the medium-tension carbon strings that I have used for the last decade. I am so glad that I found out about this set for my spruce-top guitar. If you have a spruce-top guitar, give these strings a try--I think you'll be pleasantly surprised, and if you haven't heard Irina Kulikova play, give her a listen--I think you'll like her playing too.

High quality strings for my Cordoba guitar. Excellent.

I have been loyal to this brand strings on my classical guitar for decades upon decades. With every "new" innovation the strings get better. If the tension is right for your instrument, give these a try.

Players with a light touch benefit the most. I love the crystal highs from the G b and e strings. Although playable with strumming not an ideal gauge for that type of rhythm. When I play with a hard attack, the lower strings (treble) fail to respond the same, perhaps the gauge is too small for that type of playing. Otherwise a good choice for light attack and intermediate level classical pieces.

First set of strings for my Alhambra and I am well pleased . After trying different Savarez strings I will stick with this one for now.

👍

First time I’ve ever bought Savarez strings. Really bright and easy to play; best strings I’ve ever tried. I usually got D’addario, but these are definitely a step up.

Probé estás cuerdas para mi guitarra en estudio y suenan limpias y cristalinas. Como recién lo uso, vamos a ver cuánto duran, pero van bien
