 D'Addario EJ27N Student Nylon Classical Guitar StringsContestant number one is the D'Addario EJ27N Student Nylon Classical Guitar Strings.

 Savarez 520P3 TraditionalNow we will have look at an alternative, the Savarez 520P3 Traditional. There are some products that don’t really need an introduction, just a recommendation. We believe this is that kind of product. These strings barely have a product description on Amazon, and yet its reviews reveal that it’s some of the best strings out there for classical guitar. These high tension strings sound great and the G string is wound, which gives it a very bright and nice sound. This is good because the G string can sometimes be a problem, it’s quite often ‘the boring string’, that doesn’t have much character.


Let's take a closer look at the Savarez 520P3 Traditional

WHAT OUR TEAM THOUGHT

These D'Addario EJ27N Student Nylon Classical Guitar strings work well for all kinds of classical music but also if you like to play some pop songs once in a while, in other words, good all-round strings that really suits beginners and students. The trebles are clear nylon and the basses are silver plated, copper wound strings.

The trebles are very smooth, like velvet, and they allow you to easily play and move your hand around without the string sticking to your fingers.
