Creator: Peter Jones

Creator Description: "I use Pro Arte Normal tension clear nylon J4501 for E1 to allow vibrato. I use Savarez fluorocarbon nylon alliance normal tension to give a louder but sweet B2 and G3 (542R and 543R). I use Hannabach Flamenco super low tension Nylon 8274 for D4, 8275 for A5 and 8276 for E6. The low tension and high tension sound very similar but low tension allows for easier playability but still great bass pizzazz."

Peter’s perfect perscription

I have a New World Player guitar designed by Kenny Hill. Using D’addario strings, I always found that the D string would ring loudly in sympathy with the G string, and that the intonation was not perfect for all strings. So I tried Peter’s concoction, and both problems were eliminated. Great job Peter. I can’t imagine how you came up with this combination, but they are golden on this guitar. Thanks for sharing.

A Pleasant Surprise

If I had not read the notes written by Peter Jones (for this string set) and then bought the set, I would have not tried this combination. I wouldn't have thought to use Hannabach Flamenco (super low), but Wow!, I really like this set. Thanks Peter.
