Finally I got the aquila, but I realized that I ordered the alabastro set. My first impressions: The trebles are relly the best I've tried so far (and that's a lot). Somehow it feel MUCH louder for me than any normal trebles, and much richer in color, but at the same time very sharp. I've asked for the medium tension, still it's a little harder than the ones I usually play ( D'addario EXP / EJ 30, Aranjuez etc) but has a very comfortable feel! it takes more time for the new strings to be stable, but I like them VERY MUCH! -and the milky white looks awsome.... Sadly the basses are exactly the opposite of these wonderful trebles: they're dead.... not much volume, lack of crispness, and somehow heavy-slow playing feel, so I put back my D'add. basses, and that seems to be a powerful combo for me.. Anyway this is just my guitar, that responds very well to these (but very badly for luthier or ramirez strings...) what could I say??? One can never know till try it.
