D'AddarioXT Coated Classical Guitar Strings - XTC45 - Extended String Life with Natural Tone & Feel - Normal Tension

These strings last! I teach and gig so I’m playing my classical multiple hours every day. I used to change my strings every 4 weeks. I’ve had them one for about 6 and haven’t noticed any drop off. With that said, the basses are not as bright as new non coated. They sound like basses that are already played in some, which I like, but surprised me

Excelent functionality

This set of strings is the perfect tone and quality I look for in titanium trebles and the long life coating for the bass strings really do last a good long time. The Best bang for your buck. They feel great like traditional strings and easy to play. They look amazing on my guitar

I have two classical guitars, one in regular tuning and the other I leave in drop D tuning. I put new strings on both guitars about 2 months ago. I put the EJ45's on one (because I wasn't sure I would keep it) and these XTC45's on the other. I think I play them about the same amount but the EJ's are already sounding flat while the XTC's still sound as bright and clear as when they were new. I paid $6 more for the XTC's. Both sets held their tune very quickly sounded good at the beginning but the less I have to change strings the better. I have tried other brands of strings but the D'Addario are consistently higher quality and have never slipped or broken like others have.

Good sound

It's been over 6 months now, and they still sound great. Really nice tone and very balanced (low to high end). I am not a professional, but have played for over 20 years.One other thing. I've had trouble, for years, with the nylon strings slipping / going out of tune, no matter which technique I used to tie them. But this set of strings, after the first several days of settling in, have been amazing. Sometimes I leave the guitar alone for a week, and when I pick it up it is still almost perfectly in tune. That has never happened before.I will be using these until D'Addario stops making them!

A Classical guitar's strings do degrade with age and frequency of use..and I had not noticed the lack of brilliance. The D'Addario XT strings have made my guitar young again! They are widely known and respected for their quality, smoothness and sustain. I've replaced my old strings and immediately enjoyed easier left-hand shifts up the fretboard with less string sliding noise, much longer sustain and a bright sound, especially in the high range. This is the brand I intend to stick with from now on!

I bought a used Cordoba c10 classic guitar and the professional guitarist that sold it to me told me loved these strings and he installed new ones for me. Now 18 months later I had to replace them as grime was accumulating on bass strings and bought them again and it sounds great. The 6th string is a bit thicker than what comes with Cordoba original but I love than boom sound. Will continue buying in the future
