Anders, I tell you man, I don't know if you've done me a favour or not, but I've certainly saved LOADS of money after taking up your suggestion of the D'Addario J45's. Man, they NEVER wear out, unlike the Savarez I was using, which used to break windings every couple of weeks or so. I think the last time I changed the 45's was in the Summer of last year! Totally dead and slightly out of tune... (Same one's I used in that Tangos falseta...the Basses are totally gone...but it improves your thumb force to try to compensate..[:D] ) But really good for practising, if you're on a budget! I'll break out a new set, if I've got something good to upload! [:D] cheers Ron

Not used those particular Hannabachs, but I have used their flamenco set, which sound good but don't last very long. Using J45C's at the moment, as that what Anders put on my new guitar and I love the sound so much I can't be bothered trying different sets. [:)]

That's Hannanbach trying to compete with all the crazy new carbon trebles from Gali (who also has a string using a form of the word Titanium) and Saverez. Save the carbons for classical guitars. Stick with the good old Daddario J45's.

dyst0pian -> RE: Hannabach Titanyl strings?? (Jan. 10 2007 21:07:43)
a little off topic but, anyone noticed it's always the the "D" string that breaks? i broke one everymonth for the last 4-5 months, i guess it must be cause it's the bass sting with the most tension on it, i'm also starting to think a capo is much harder on the strings, anyone care to comment? :o

Thomas Whiteley -> RE: Hannabach Titanyl strings?? (Jan. 10 2007 22:15:14)
I tried them as well as the genius titanio which I mention as they are in the same class - not for me! I will stick with my D'Addario J45's.

Thomas Whiteley -> RE: Hannabach Titanyl strings?? (Jan. 10 2007 22:17:39)
The D string breaking at the second fret is common with many sets of strings. Is that the area where you are experiencing the break? Have you tried the D'Addario J45's?

estulin -> RE: Hannabach Titanyl strings?? (Jan. 11 2007 2:58:41)
Which D'Addario's are the J45's? I've looked on the strings by mail site and they have a number of J45's listed.

never had this happen to me, nor heard about anything like this...those strings must be really really old (and used, which is good), but the solution could be to use a capo and frequently change its position so that the tension doesn't always hit 'that' point, also when not practicing with anyone else or a backing track, it could be a good idea to play with the tuning (you can always see the marks of wearing down that particular part of the string)... btw i totally fell in love with Ramirez's strings they sound fantastic, but it could be because my guitar is a Ramirez too...

Anders Eliasson -> RE: Hannabach Titanyl strings?? (Jan. 11 2007 8:00:44)
Well The reason I ask is that I dont like nylon 3rd strings. I dont care about the brand . I just dont like them......... I´ve played a lot with Daddarios 3rd string, but sometimes I find a bit to stiff. Basses.... Well new ones are good one, no? so cheap ones are good ones as well, meaning I mostly play Daddario also because they are quite consistant. So noone has tried those titanylos trebles?

ToddK -> RE: Hannabach Titanyl strings?? (Jan. 11 2007 13:03:00)
Hmmm, ok, you just want a great 3rd string? In my opinion, saverez alliance 3rd string is the best ive played, and ive pretty much played them all. Except for the Titanyls.[:D] I was just trying out some black trebles from Labella that Ricardo gave me. Didnt like them. Hard and plastic sounding. TK

Anders Eliasson -> RE: Hannabach Titanyl strings?? (Jan. 11 2007 17:20:17)
I like the Savarez as well, but the med. tension is to flimsy and the hard tension to hard. II can be very picky with treble strings[8\|]) So what happened to Hannabach Goldins? You used to rave about them and they have a quite nice tension and volume that goes well with med. tension nylon 1st and 2nd string

sianturi -> RE: Hannabach Titanyl strings?? (Mar. 7 2007 17:12:06)
Hi Anders, the Titanyls have nice, bright, crispy and transparent sound, I never had a set where it is possible to emphasize and expose certain strings, while moving from one to another, especially in the trebles. Amazing, if you like to play with the sound. They are high tension, and thats the only tension available. This is a disadvantage from my point of view, because you have to push the strings much more with the right hand to get it hitting the fingerboard for production of percussive, twangy tone. They settle quickly, comparable to EJ45s. They are very expensive. After 6 hours of playing I the wear on the basses seems ok. Sianturi
