DAddario Pro Arte Classical Guitar Strings Silver Plated Wound, Nylon Core Review

As a professional guitarist, I have been through many different brands and types of strings. I recently had the chance to try the DAddario Pro Arte Classical Guitar Strings Silver Plated Wound, Nylon Core. In this review, I will tell you about my experience with these strings and how they compared to other classical guitar strings.

The first thing I noticed was the sound quality of these strings. The Pro Arte strings produce a very mellow tone that is perfect for classical music. They also provide a good amount of sustain, making them great for fingerpicking and arpeggios. The basses are multi filament nylon core which provides a nice response when played with a pick or fingers. The trebles are clear nylon and provide a bright but not too bright sound.

The next thing I wanted to test was the value for money. These strings cost just under 10, which is quite reasonable considering the quality of sound they produce. They are also made in the USA, so you know they are made with high standards and attention to detail. Furthermore, each string comes with a code on the recyclable VCI bag which can be registered to earn Players Circle points which can be used towards future purchases.

When it comes to longevity, these strings have performed well over time. After playing them for several hours every day for two weeks, they still sounded great and provided good sustain and clarity. It is worth noting that these strings may require more frequent tuning than other brands due to their thin gauge .024 .

For beginners learning classical guitar, these strings may be too thin as they require more precision when playing chords and melodies. However, more experienced players should find them quite suitable as they provide enough clarity without sacrificing tone or sustain.

Finally, the brightness of these strings was quite impressive. Even when played softly, the trebles still produced plenty of volume without sounding harsh or brittle. This allows players to play with more expression without having to worry about overpowering their audience or fellow musicians.

Overall, I highly recommend the DAddario Pro Arte Classical Guitar Strings Silver Plated Wound, Nylon Core for any intermediate or advanced guitarist who is looking for an affordable set of high quality classical guitar strings that provide excellent sound quality and value for money. They have great sustain and clarity while still providing enough brightness to cut through any mix without being too harsh or overpowering.
