D'Addario EJ45FF Carbon NT Classical Guitar Strings CBN-3T, Treble Set
[CBN-3T]

after further review, I'm done looking. There may be a better e string out there, but this one is just about pure perfection for me. The verdict is still out on the g and b string, I have another g string I prefer, but this D'Addario carbon e string is really something. Pure and clear, reasonably good sustain, responds very well to vibrato. Unfortunately at this point you have to buy the whole set of trebles, they are not individually packaged, but the e string is well worth it even if you don't use the other two. This is a great string for any style of playing. Hard to describe in words, but I knew as soon as I put it on that it was exactly the sound I was looking for. Yes, it's bright, but in a full kind of way. I could go on and on, but this set in normal tension has a very nice e string. good luck, hope this helps
