Of course not. I prefer high tension. The guitar will be fine. I will be fine.

bought new set on amazon for 13euros and something , with trial prime means zero ship costs.
even with ship costs (3 euros ...) its a good price 16 euros , because ship costs puts this set at 20 euros or more total price on majority of places

I think I prefer the standard Cantiga to the Premium

What's the difference? I occasionally use the orange pack - 510MR Creation Cantiga set equivalent to the Tomatito normal tension (they are the exact same strings) depending on which one is cheaper, sometimes one is £1 cheaper than the other, but it depends on the shop! I have never tried "Premium" Cantiga....

I find the Premium a bit darker, less crisp, but I am used to them now, oddly they are cheaper on Amazon.

510MR Creation Cantiga

Premium supose to last longer , but , basses arent the same measure , regular 510mr (light blue and orange pack) basses are thicker than regular creation Cantiga.
Altought Premium (orange pack) and 510mr orange pack have the same measures...
Maybe differences in new stock and old stock , i thing regular mr510 light blue and orange pack are more recent stock.

Tomatitos normal , supose to last longer like premium and measures are like orange pack 510mr (regular and premium)

I think thats it.

Tomatito sounds more darker cold clean , than the premium 510 mr light blue orange pack.
