D'Addario EXP45C Coated Normal Classical Guitar Stringsby D'Addario
|
Product Description
An ultra-fine layer of EXP Coating is bonded to the silverplated copper wrap wire which is then wound onto the hex-shaped core wire. The result is a built-in barrier against the corrosion and wear that can quickly sap the life out of your strings and your sound. EXP coated silverplated copper classical strings have a natural round wound feel and sound fresh and bright with a "new string tone" that lasts three to four times longer than traditional guitar strings.Reviews
Recommend D'Addario EJ45 or EJ45C InsteadI did not find the sound of the lower, wrapped strings to be what I would consider "bright" or "new string sound", but downright tinny, which is not what I would go for in string sound. The D in particular stood out inappropriately both in volume and in its overtly metallic sound.
By way of disclaimer: I have only tried one set, and these on a Cordoba 50-R. I did not play them for more than a couple days because I was rather annoyed by the sound of them. I am not a professional, but have been playing dutifully for some years.
I have always found D'Addario EJ45 strings to be well-balanced, reliable, and of reasonable life. If you are looking for an "extended play" string I have found the D'Addario composite EJ45C to be just fine, though I think I prefer the tone of the EJ45s.
