## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these strings good sound for simple strumming?**
A: They probably are, but I think they will sound their best if your strumming isn't too aggressive.  Keep in mind that ALL SIX strings are wound with nylon. If you strum with a pick, you may wear thought the winding fairly quickly.

**Q: are both the 2nd & 3rd strings wound in this set ?....thank you**
A: All of the strings are wound. They have higher tension similar to 520 Q’s (Flamenco). I used to use 520 R’s  but I’ve been enjoying these more.

    Great on a Guild GAD-3
  

*by A***Z on Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2016*

I just strung a set of 520P1s on my Guild GAD-3 and OMG!  These are just right, amazing!  It took an hour or so for the strings to stretch and settle then I gave 'er a go and couldn't believe the sound.  Balanced presence across all strings and it makes the guitar sound as good as it looks.  There were newish D'Addario EJ45TT ProArte DynaCore strings on the guitar, they were not very responsive and the guitar sounded like Just OK, and that was because I was constantly compensating.  Now with the 520P1s I just play and the guitar sings.  Yeah they're harder to fret but I bet that won't be an issue after a week of practice, practice, practice.So, if you have a Guild GAD-3 give these these strings a try - you'll be glad you did!For the record I play fingerstyle and I am not a classical guitarist - i play a lot of classical pieces but I play 'em my way.Note:  I had to clip the first three strings to get 'em through the bridge holes (I was real careful when treading the clipped end) and i clipped off both ends after stringing.  I tie solid (not alway pretty) knots at the bridge and tuners so there won't be a unraveling problems and it looks good.

    the reward is in the tone that these trebles produce which is the very best and most consistent I've encountered in any set of .
  

*by D***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2016*

Yes, these strings ARE inclined to produce more pronounced "string squeak" when you slide your fret hand up and down the neck. However, the reward is in the tone that these trebles produce which is the very best and most consistent I've encountered in any set of classical nylon strings. My experience with them is exclusively limited to my Kremona/Orpheus Valley Fiesta FC, a robustly-built, cedar topped classical, so keep that in mind as you read this review. I believe that every instrument (and player) needs to be uniquely matched to a set of strings, so your expectations should be mindful of that fact. Personally, I'd avoid using high tension strings entirely on any guitar that's lightly built.In my case, I've tried unwound trebles from a number of string manufacturers and found the trebles to be consistently disappointing -- primarily for the non-musical resonance that is sometimes produced by mono-filament nylon "G" and "B" strings. The stranded nylon core and plastic winding on these trebles has eliminated this irritating problem entirely. I now have a well balanced set of trebles to compliment the beautifully rich tone that Savarez 520-series bass strings have always produced.I highly recommend that you try a set of Savarez 520P's or 520P1's at your earliest convenience.

    not exactly groundbreaking difference in tone, its ok
  

*by K***E on Reviewed in the United States on December 17, 2014*

i had always wondered what it would be like if all nylon strings were coated. We all love the bold sound of the wound bass strings. The treble strings have been always unwounded to give a contrasting sweet lyrical sound in the trebles. This is the first set where all the strings are wound & the resulting sound is .... just okayI thought the treble strings would be silver wound & be very bright so i thought it may be a good match for my lutheir built flamenco guitar. strangely the trebles are wound in plastic. The sound of these plastic trebles is somewhat like hearing the upper frets of the wound bass strings. For example, the 1st e strings sounds like holding the 14thfret on the D string.I cant imagine them being suitable for any classical performance. Maybe for a flamenco sound or even a unique pop guitar tone. the sound is somewhere between nylon strings & steel. not as mellow as nylon & Not as bright as steel. It may work well with a dark sounding guitar if u want a different brighter,percussive snappy sound. However note that these strings are not extremely different from a general savarez high tension set. Just a little snappier but with lots of squeak cos of the wound trebles.Here's my only complaint : the finger squeak is unbearable ! i cant imagine using it for a studio recording (no one can listen to every string squeaking)even if u have very clean technique.
