xirdneH_imiJ -> RE: How to choose flamenco guitar strings (Feb. 23 2024 20:10:42)

As a beginner you'll go through many guitar strings - especially if you decide to stick with the genre. You've got plenty of opportunity to try different brands and tensions, so I'd suggest to anyone to go through the process. I can tell you what I like, but ultimately it's your preference whether it comes to sound, feel, or longevity. Some of the strings that are regularly recommended, I can't stand (Savarez, D'Addario). I hate strings that are too thin (Really the only thing wrong with D'Addarios), anything labelled as flamenco, I hate gold and coloured strings in general, and usually anything below high normal tension is just not enough for me. I tried nearly everything available until I settled on Luthier Silver 45s, these days Knoblochs. Anyone will be able to tell their story, similarly to choosing your preferred guitar.
