"Have you ever thought that you would prefer to focus on the music rather than getting annoyed by the strings losing their pitch? Or desired a string that has a round sound, perfect pitch and ready to play in one hour? A dream? No, The new Dynamic White strings by RC! I used them in my concert with the Berlin Philharmonic and got a perfect result. Thank you, RC."

“I have equipped all my guitars with RC Strings, JG Dynamic White, normal tension. The strings are very comfortable to play. Despite the pleasant tension they have the powerful sound of high tension strings. The sound can easily be formulated. The harmonics are very clear and the colors are unique. I particularly appreciate that the strings keep their tuning very fast! RC Strings are an enrichment for the guitar world!” Michael Erni
Rev great on a short scale.
After RC Strings developed its high-tension Sonata Forte strings, some soloists found that their guitar and their technical needs required even more tension.

Luthier Strings
Evaluation and which guitars it works well with:
This is the first string I turn to as it is beautifully resonant on the trebles with deep bases and is very warm and tonal with a lot of details in the mid-range - perfect for classical. These strings are also very consistent - and very long lasting.
If you crave excellent tone, responsiveness, and long life in your classical guitar strings, you'll definitely want to try Luthier strings.
Evaluation and which guitars it works well with:
Similar characteristics as you would expect to its nylon cousin, with the trebles offering added brightness and projection without the plastic overtones that some carbon strings can deliver.
Alhambra Strings
Evaluation and which guitars it works well with:
These are is is the strings that all Alhambra guitars come with.
Silverplated Nylon Classical Guitar strings are premium classical guitar string series.
Treble strings are measured by a sophisticated computer-controlled laser which performs consistency and quality checks, insuring true-sounding strings in every set.
Basses are made with 80/20 bronze wound on nylon.
A very consistent string with great classical depth and projection that works so well across the whole Alhambra range.
This is a string that like the guitars has been constantly tested and honed to perfection for over 50 years.
Paulino Bernabe Strings
Evaluation and which guitars it works well with:
Paulino Bernabe has a great sense of humour but is a serious man when it comes to his guitars, designing and crafting every aspect right down to the last detail.
So we’re not surprised that he has his own special strings and they just make his guitars sing!
New owners of his guitars invariably abandon their favourite string for the Paulino Bernabe Carbons.
Years of the love affair with nylon are forgotten overnight.

Series Information-
The ERITHACUS Line is created for guitarists who need a natural, warm and round sound with impeccable intonation, durability, and great playability.
Wide Dynamic Range when Playing Live.
As a guitarist with long experience and as an arranger in pursuit of beautiful music, it's important that I should notice the small things that elevate the guitar to another level, even if it's only a slightly higher level, because all the small things add up to make a difference. The range between the softest and loudest sounds in a piece of music can be affected by string selection. I wrote and arranged an instrumental piece that included an arpeggio which would hold a longer note as an accent every time the accent note was on string 1. While I wanted the highest notes to stand out, I could not get the accent to be much louder than the other notes. Not much of an accent really. The rest stroke on the accented note was the right way to prepare, but I wanted loudness with clarity, not loudness with heavy handed distortion. Talking to one of the people at Knobloch Strings about this, I mentioned that I was using medium high tension strings. I was reluctant to go to high tension strings based on bad experiences I had many years ago with a different brand, where they had plenty of volume, but it was hard to play with soft and medium volume. It seemed I had to play loud all the time. The man from Knobloch Strings understood and recommended the EDC 34.0, also medium high tension. I struggled to see the benefit of staying on the same tension of string, but I had never used carbon strings before. His recommendation was based on positive feedback from other guitarists who had a playing history similar to mine.
The EDC 34.0 carbon strings gave me the volume boost overall, actually more than I expected, but I could still bring the volume down low in a controlled way. From atmospheric sounds building smoothly to the mid-range and then the strong but clear notes gave me a much wider dynamic range than I ever had experienced before. In that wider dynamic range, I found my solution, and the volume boost did not interfere with the tonal qualities. The narrower dynamic range I had before, meant that my soft notes were almost inaudible, so I didn't give them the attention they deserved. The wider dynamic range gives me more room to arrange expressive, quiet sections, and play them at a level where they can be heard well. I now have enough dynamic range to save my loudest parts for the high point in the arc of the song. Additionally, when playing a scaled or arpeggiated section and I want to accent a specific note using a firm rest stroke, I have the volume from these strings to make the accented note have an impact. As an arranger, I can write to a wider dynamic range to better express the song, or it's story, in a more subtle and beautiful way. EDC 34.0 strings have unlocked one additional layer for me to elevate the music.

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.

Sound Combination:
o The clarity of the Actives Double Silver basses brightens the muted yet sonorous SN Nylon trebles.
o With this particular combination, it is important to balance the respective dynamic levels in the different registers, as these basses tend to have more projection than these trebles.
o The result is a brilliant, resonant bass sound tapered by a more muted treble sound without losing the richness in the high register.

We have found Savarez Cristal work really well on double top guitars.
The Savarez Cristal Corum high-tension strings are a clear choice for your classical guitar.
They get their “Cristal” name from the transparency of the nylon treble strings.
This clarity is made possible through the use of an improved form of nylon and Savarez’s high-tech manufacturing methods that use laser beams and photoelectric cells to monitor the precision and consistency of the string’s gauge.
This computer-controlled method results in a transparent string with a perfectly true intonation and a smooth surface for optimal feel.
These strings are now used in all Savarez sets that include nylon trebles.
The silver-plated wound bass strings received their own share of innovation, too.
Savarez has perfected manufacturing techniques that give these bass strings unmatched flexibility with fast answer.
This performance is accomplished by reducing the internal friction of the strings.
This allows the string to produce a more extended sound and an increased sound level with less vibration.

We have found these strings work really well with the guitars made Angel Benito Aguado of Madrid, and they are also a favourite of the Esteve and Juan Hernandez range.
Savarez Traditional trebles are made of rectified nylon which is characterised by a distinctive unpolished finish.
This grittiness contributes to a lessening of the high overtones.
Because of their texture, the treble strings are unusually controllable with regard to vibrato and stability.
The characteristics of their tone make their pitch particularly clear and true. The basses are on the warm and soft side, and their tone is strong overall.
Trebles:
Manufactured from a high technology synthetic fibre exclusively for Savarez.
These treble strings are unique in the world of classical guitar strings and represent the first major change in material and performance since the 1940's when nylon trebles replaced gut.
They have remarkably increased brilliance, volume, and treble response compared with all conventional nylon trebles.
Basses:
Wound on nylon multi-filament core.
Although superficially similar to other bass strings for classical guitar, they have been redesigned to match the acoustic qualities of the Alliance KF trebles and provide a well-balanced set.
