Though the main music fair moved from Germany to China couple of years ago I believe. That one was much bigger. People like Felipe Conde, Sanchis, et. dont show up here anymore, only companies like Alhambra, Saez, etc. were there. And even those were not that happy with visitor count. Biz seems to be rough these days.

Hi, I use the original one. I think that's enough for my Conde. I tried SAVAREZ 540cr and the base is not good on my guitar.

DAddario is good for those great guitars because it has the cleanest natural sound and all sounds depend on your guitar. The only imperfect thing DAddario is the lifecycle

quote: I completely changed from hard tension which i played for years on my Sanchis 1f extra to medium/low tension. just followed this advice. Great result. Furthermore, I had my RSC to the luthier to lower inter-string spacing at the bridge from overall 60 to 56mm. Changes life.

That string spacing would be hell for my fat fingers[:D] but glad you enjoy the ease of playing with less tensioned strings. Of course, there is always a compromise to be made when you choose between hard and low tensions ( a bit of volume, this and that) and some playing styles simply are better off with hard tension, but it is worth to try out and see.

D'Addario had issues with their pro arte line unfortunately, as stated by many guitarists elsewhere. Knobloch has long lasting basses, but have not found a really likable treble of theirs. I have not tried the leo brouwer sets and I never use fluorocarbon. I am mentioning fluorocarbon because many Knobloch players like their CX trebles.

quote: Hello again. Aquila rubino this time. It was the first Aquila I wanted to try but the warming in strings by mail site about breaking issues with them put me off at that time. But having tried sugar, Alchemia, Alabastro and Cristallo with not getting exactly what I was looking for I thought why not give rubino a chance. Without expecting much as it is as Alabastro with metal powder added. It seemed weird but... What an absolutely pleasant surprise! These strings are clear, bright, not carbonish at all, have a lot of punch and are perfectly in tune from the first day (first hour actually). Perfect intonation too and feel going very fast with these. I just tried the Rubinos after I saw Stephen Faulk's video when a client specified he wanted them on a new guitar. Wow, I love them, they sound and feel brilliant. I have been using Savarez 510 MRP for quite a while and until now they were very satisfying. But I am a Rubino convert. Shame the trebles are dog sh1te brown though.
