D'Addario EJ40 Silk & Steel Folk, 11-47

The color coding made it easier to restring my guitar. I am just a beginner and have not played much, but they seem to be just fine. (your strings were recommended by a friend).

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

Very nice strings...

Very nice feel with a rich sound that belies the easy tension of the 3-6 wound strings. Work very well in my solo performances!

We could not be happier with the D’Addario EJ40 Silk and Steel. The tonality from the strings is rich and full, and perhaps a touch warmer than standard steel strings. They’re also easier on the fingertips of my spouse who has picked up a guitar for the first time in many years.
