Review: Great strings, go with high tension if you've been playing steel strings - I'm getting back into nylon string guitar. I have a cheap classical that had broken strings so decided to give these a try. If you play steel string guitar as your main instrument, go for a high tension set. They're very easy to play and if you have strength built up from steel strings, these won't present any problems. In fact, I've needed to develop a lighter touch with both hands to keep things in control. These sound great. The bass strings resonate well and the three "nylgut" strings feel good and have a sweet top end. Overall I find them to be very balanced and pleasing to the ear. I've got no issues with these, but I'm also a novice nylon string player. I've grown my right hand fingernails a bit and I'm working on my classical right hand techniques. Review: Thoughts from an intermediate player - I put these strings on my Alvarez hybrid classical/electric guitar. I'm giving them 5 stars because they're certainly high quality, but I'll also say that I probably wouldn't buy them again. As you'd expect from higher tension strings, they're a little bit harder on the fingers than the EJ45 strings. That's not such a big deal if you have calluses, but they still have a very different feel from normal tension strings, and I'm not really a fan of it so far. They also have a different sound. The base strings in particular are brighter and louder than D'addario normal tension strings. They have sort of a metallic twang to them that's hard for me to describe. As a result, these strings sound really good when I'm strumming chords, but when I'm fingerpicking a song, the bass strings tend to overpower the treble strings and I've had to adjust my technique accordingly. They almost make my guitar sound more like a traditional steel string than a classical. Overall, I don't think these are my cup of tea, but don't take my word for it. They're definitely worth a try, especially if you do a lot of strumming on your classical. ## Features - STANDARD CLASSICAL TONE - Pro -Arte’ Nylon strings offer the standard classical guitar tone many players hold dear. - RESPONSIVE PLAYABILITY & WARM TONE - Utilizing our multi-filament nylon core basses and clear nylon trebles, Pro-Arte’ Nylon strings provide beautifully responsive playability and sweet, mellow tonal warmth. - TIE ENDS - This set features tie-ends, nylon monofilament material, and silver-plated copper wrap wire. - EARN REWARD POINTS - D’Addario Pro-Arte’ Nylon classical guitar strings come with a code on the recyclable, resealable VCI bag, which you can register to earn Players Circle points. - MADE IN THE USA – Our classical strings are made in the USA—drawn to exacting specifications at our New York production facility. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0002H0JZ2 | | Best Sellers Rank | #40 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #1 in Classical Guitar Strings | | Brand Name | D'Addario | | Coating Description | Coated | | Color | Silver | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (2,382) | | Finish Type | Copper | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00019954121273 | | Hand Orientation | Right hand | | Included Components | Strings only | | Instrument | Classical Guitar | | Item Type Name | Guitar Strings, Hard Tension | | Item Weight | 0.01 Ounces | | Manufacturer | D'Addario &Co.

Are these nylon strings or steel strings??** A: They are nylon strings, its just the lower strings (E,A,D) are going to be "plated" with silver; all in all they are still nylon strings, not steel. **Q: can I use this strings on a Jamine S35 guitar?** A: FYI: Steel-string guitars are built much heavier than classicals and it takes a steel string (with more tension) to "drive" the top of a SS guitar. If you use classical strings on it the strings won't begin to "drive" the top and it will sound puny to say the least. The dude who recommended trying "silk n' steel" strings is absolutely right. That is a cross-over string often used on very old parlor guitars; those might give you some decent sound, but probably nothing like what a regular steel string would give you. Free info from a luthier. **Q: does it have ballends** A: No, these strings have plain ends - you have to tie them. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great strings, go with high tension if you've been playing steel strings *by A***F on May 27, 2025* I'm getting back into nylon string guitar.

Bought them because they were advertised as being bright but also hard, and they are definitely both. The bass strings especially have much brighter/crisper tone than what I have used in the past and over all they are a little bit harder (under more tension). The downside so far is that they do not stay in tune very well, I've had them on the Guitar for a couple of months now and still have to tune every time I play, which is pretty much daily. ## Frequently Bought Together - D'Addario Guitar Strings - Pro-Arte Classical Guitar Strings - EJ46 - Nylon Guitar Strings - Silver Plated Wound, Nylon Core - Hard Tension, 1-Pack - D'Addario Accessories Pro-Winder Guitar String Winder, Cutter, Bridge Pin Puller - All in One Guitar Tool - Black - D'Addario Guitar Strings - Pro-Arte Classical Guitar Strings - EJ46FF Carbon Strings - Silver Plated Wrap, Composite Dynacore, Carbon Trebles - Hard Tension --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.my/products/1880513-ej46-pro-arte-nylon-classical-guitar-strings-hard-tension](https://www.desertcart.com.my/products/1880513-ej46-pro-arte-nylon-classical-guitar-strings-hard-tension) --- *Product available on Desertcart Malaysia* *Store origin: MY* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
