High Tension with Nylon Trebles, Double Silver Basses

This is a premium string and is fast becoming the cult string amongst guitarists looking for the extra edge in their playing.

On their website Knobloch say the aim is to deliver “Perfect intonation, well-balanced with a warm full sound, Knobloch Strings are acclaimed by today’s leading guitarists, both nationally and internationally”.

Lofty aims? You be the judge.

I was lucky given a couple of sets of Knobloch by Jacob Cordover last year when he recorded at Guitarsonline. I gave them out to our test panel to test and the feedback was uniformly enthusiastic.

These strings are just hard to get! But finally - we have some for you to play with!

Evaluation and which guitars it works well with

This string delivers a sweeter interpretation than QZ.

The Nylon SN trebles have a traditional sound without losing volume.

The material of this old generation of nylon, combined with a slightly thicker string diameter, brings a sweetness and provides a smooth and comfortable feel under the fingers.

For those looking to capture the warmth of the familiar classical guitar sound, these Nylon SN give a rounded tone and impeccable intonation.
