Are the luthier hard tension as well? and the Composite hard tension too? Do you use the brown G string? Normal tension Basses, Normal tension trebles. Stringsbymail says that Luthier 30 are med-high tension, but i feel them like normal tension. I like the sound of brown G string, but my fingers dont say the same. quote:
LOL I was wandering why you had all those questions about strings. Glad you found your match. Personally I buy a set of strings, put it on, play it, and change to something else next time, and this repeating endlessly. Some are better, some are worse... What do you do with the left overs? Now you have an Anders guitar Kozz. Try this combo. Please tell me if your guitar likes La Bella black trebles. I'm not buying complete strings sets. Thanks to StringsbyMail. BTW, how's your new guitar? quote:
Lately I´ve used Daddario flamenco strings and I like them. The basses, I´m pretty sure they are the same as the composites and the black trebles look sexy and gothic. Anders, these D' Addario Flamenco strings are on a hard tension side. I prefer something lighter.

Your guitar was shipped with pro-arte J45. My standard string. Its cheap and consistant, and a lot of players use them, so my guitars have to work with them. Besides I dont think they are as bad as Gounaro says. Kozz, dig in on that guitar. My guitars sound a lot when you play them lightly, but the beast comes out when you dig in. They get dryer, more midrange and a lot of power. I play secong guitar at a cante workshop and I cannot play my best guitars because they totally overpower the other guitarists guitar. I have use my good old swing around guitar. Thanks Anders, dig in is what I would love to do, but I am living in an apartment and is not always possible, hence my escape to the stairs sometimes. Perhaps I should awaken the beast inside of me to get it out of the guitar, I am a bit lame lately Fortunately I am sick since yesterday, all the neighbors are gone...so party time ahead!

Deal with the neighbors is not simple. Even if they're nice, in the long run the guitar may piss them off (except if you play just 30 min every once and then). To fully enjoy, you should find a place where you don't have to worry about the "noise" you made. For example if you have a basement, you could arrange it, so that it can be functional for your session. The fact is you don't need alot of space, just a chair, a piece of furniture to put your laptop and speakers and an electrical outlet where to plug an heater (and an access to a toilet). I know a drummer who orgaznize his car garage so he could work there. Instead of parking his car in it. Also you should look for a place to rent. See if there is no rehearsal rooms for musicians in your city. Ask them if you can share the room and the rent. (best option for me). Or place an ad for a little room... If you're not convinced, try it anyway and you'll see if it suits you. it will cost you some extra bucks but I think it's worth

Thanks for the idea, I do have a basement, it needs some cleaning up etc. but maybe it is not a bad idea after all. If I was only able yet to entertain my neighbors with small 'concerts' it wouldn't be that bad, but listening to somebody who's learning isn't the most pleasant one. Gounaro, how did you come to the idea the experiment so much with strings? I notice some differences, but not so clear that I could remember all differences. quote:
You should always try to awake the beast inside you and not only when playing the guitar. If you do so, no more problems with neighbours. They wont dare...... I'm gonna discuss that with them, above me are from Poland (no offense )
