Tone and comfort

Benjamin I. 29.12.2022

My Cort folk had heavier gauge strings for "punchier" tone but they were harder to play, making clean pull-offs and hammer-ons was difficult. Not so with the 10-47's. And the whole of the playing time is an easier time because less muscle is needed to just push the strings against the frets.

When I play fingerpicking I don't use the nails, only the flesh of the fingertips, so fewer highs are emitted. Combined with thicker strings that have less highs, some of the acoustic's nicety is lost. The 10's give out more highs, problem solved. Moreover I play the bass, so nails have to be super-short. Playing with a pick makes the change more apparent.

The tone is not less powerful because what is lost in "punchiness" is gained in harmonics, the energy struck into the string is the same, so the wood's vibration is just as strong. And it seems I felt the extra highs as much as they can be heard. I realize the 12's made the tone metallic, too.

So now it will be 10-47's only for me. The 12-53's were also D'Addario so only two strings needed a tiny filing of the saddle to adjust intonation.

My fingers experienced an orgasm

Evgeniy Temnikov 15.01.2022

This review was written through a translator.

These strings are just salvation for my fingers, there were 13-56 strings on my guitar, it felt like my fingers were being cut with a knife, but as soon as I bought this kit, the guitar playing started playing with new colors. I recommend these strings to all beginners (like me).
I advise you to replace the first string with a 10 gauge, the 9 gauge is very easy to tear.

Thank you Thomann!

Sorry, but no cigar!

Tor Slotmann 11.07.2023

I’ve tested all three sets through on my Taylor acoustic dreadnought, and I must admit that I don’t understand the high ratings at Thomann.

The low E-string of all three sets resonated very uneven. The A-string and the D-string sounded okay. But 1st, 2nd and 3rd string had a sound I can only describe as fizzling and somewhat unpleasant.

These strings are probably okay, if you use a pick for all your playing styles. I play acoustic in all sorts of ways: strumming, picking, hitting the strings with my flat hand – usually combining these techniques. So, perhaps, I just have to have a thicker set of strings for my style.
