Wonderful strings!
Recently, I bought a GS Mini Acoustic Guitar from a local shop in my city. The strings on it needed changing and the strings that the shop owner put on were John Pearse Jazz Manouche strings. The first string (high E) had a blemish on the string .. a small glob of steel that had eluded their quality control I guess. I found the sound to be rather bright, the bass to be understated and my fingers were working hard. Upon the suggestion of my teacher, we changed the strings to the D’Addario EJ-40 Silk and Steel strings. What a difference to the sound, now round and mellow, the bass was able to speak and the playability of the guitar, without changing the action, was greatly improved. I realize these are subjective words I’m using, but it was a significant difference in the right direction imo. Now I’m ordering more of these strings from SBM. Bonnie
