D'Addario EJ45 Pro-Arte Nylon Classical Guitar Strings, Normal Tension

here are so many guitar strings out there most people don't what it's all about & can be confusing for anybody pro, intermediate or beginner. I spoke with D'Addario about some of their strings & here are the details along with a few other things I've learned over the years:

(1) The first nylon classical string from D'Addario is the EJ27 line. These are "Clear Nylon" & Du Pont's original Nylon 6,6. The word "student" applied to them is now misrepresented & was only used because they offered short scale string length sets in this line: EJ27 1/2 & EJ27 3/4 for smaller guitars, & not because they were any lower quality than other strings. The EJ27N & EJ27H are professional high quality sets & the brightest out of the 3 basic nylon string types: "Clear", "Rectified" & "Laser Checked". These strings & terminology have been misrepresented & misunderstood.

(2) Then came "Rectified" strings EJ29-31. Same basses as above, just ground & polished trebles to cut the higher overtones [???] & harmonics for a "warmer sound" [???] & make em feel more like Catgut because that's what strings were always compared to back in the day with feel & sound [not sure if these are Nylon 6,6 or Nylon 6]. Savarez String Co started rectification & D'Addario came up with their own rectified products EJ29-31 line for that market place [Andreas Segovia & students also wanted treble string tone difference from steel string acoustic guitar tone & cut the higher overtones & harmonics, Augustine String Co simply used a soft nylon but thicker strings for their dampening method influenced by Segovia].

(3) Then came the Pro Arte "Laser Checked" trebles EJ45-52. These are checked for assurance that "They're Round". Their treble gauges are lighter than the EJ27 line. I believe these to be Nylon 6, with softer feel, tension & tone

"Clear Nylon" strings don't need to be laser checked because it's perfectly round from the supplier DuPont who have their own high quality checks. Many think the laser checking makes a better string & checks for general integrity & evenness in manufacturing, but that's only good if you do something extra like rectification & that costs, it's not needed if you don't want a "warm" string that cut the overtones.

The bass strings are all silver coated wound, but the earlier sets I suspect are Nylon 6,6 core & the Pro Arte line Nylon 6 core. Now many people complain that the trebles "aren't bright enough" with sets like EJ45-52, well then stop using those strings & that type of Nylon 6. Also Rectification dampens the overtones, but ironically then luthiers started to brighten their instruments with many techniques, woods & engineering & also flourocarbon & other materials were introduced for strings.

You can start with the strings first in a very simple way: don't use nylon strings that are designed to not be bright. The bottom line is a "Clear Nylon" [Nylon 6,6] is brighter than "Rectified Nylon" or "Laser checked" regardless of manufacturer. & they're also less expensive. But if you want the best La Bella makes the absolute best sounding nylon strings & most balanced gauges. D'Addario's bass strings are a little too thick & tense with all their nylon string models compared to their treble strings. La Bella uses the highest quality & densest nylon for the best tone & most intelligently balanced gauges for feel & tone with their bass & treble strings.

All these choices with strings are not well understood by the public & most music store personal don't know either. A lot of goofy & crazy things have happened in the classical guitar world because of string engineering & manufacturing. Guitar players simply experiment til they find something they like, which is amusing to a certain point, but you can cut to the chase by eliminating strings that you don't want if you know what they were manufactured for in the first place.

A lot of people are using rectified strings that cut the high overtones, but then use higher tension gauges to get brightness, power & volume for that exact purpose that would be easier achieved with a clear nylon? This foolishness makes no sense & other guitarists influence each other like "the blind leading the blind" through a labyrinth of idiocy. (a) You need to simplify (b) & understand what you're dealing with (c) with what it was designed for (d) in order to make proper choices from facts.

If people like the bass strings from the Pro Arte line but want brighter trebles, start with going back to basics & try the EJ27N (Normal Tension) or EJ27H (Higher Tension) trbles, these give the original classical nylon sound [old school] of many decades ago & are very balanced across the sound spectrum. Nylon isn't supposed to sound like Catgut, because it's not Catgut! The density is different, but Nylon 6,6 has it's own unique beautiful "modern" sound with it's own overtones & harmonics. & if that doesn't work then maybe try Titanium Trebles, Fluorocarbon or Nylgut.

Combine rectified strings with an ebony fingerboard guitar & you have a very limited guitar when it comes to sound. Ebony is the most dampening of woods & a deadening fingerboard for guitars. Most guitar tonal & volume issues classical guitarists have is because of Ebony fingerboards & rectified Nylon strings. Ebony was used for three reasons in classical stringed instruments:

(1) Durability. Since strings were in direct contact on the board ebony was used because of its density & look. Guitars are fretted & strings don't touch the wood, so almost any hard wood can work.

(2) To cut overtones. Since many classical stringed instruments played together, instruments were created with more fundamental note emphasis, because when multiple instruments play together they have a chorusing effect, overtones & volume are created in conjunction with the other instruments. That's why maple another dampening wood is also used for backs, sides & necks of many classical stringed instruments. When large groups of stringed instrument play together if they all had many dynamic overtones, the group as a whole would sound too blended together, so focusing on the fundamental is for that environment. Violins had to play above the orchestras, ensembles or groups, so their instruments were designed with more overtone activity. In the book Science & Music by Sir James Jeans explains how the difference between a Stradivari violin & modern or cheap one is the overtones & harmonics. The Stradivari is much more sonically rich. The same thing with a Harpsichord or Clavichord, the modern piano evolved from them because they wanted to dampen the notes, which were much more sonically rich with overtones & harmonics.

(3) Placebo Effect. Today a high end classical guitar is expected to have ebony. No matter what Luthier creates an instrument [many are overpriced junk] the woods themselves setup parameters that already lay the tonal foundation. Build two identical guitars one with ebony & one with Rosewood fingerboard, the Rosewood one will have better overall sound & will be louder. For example Cordoba's Iberia line which are designed by Kenny Hill but built in China by a top Asian Guitar company proves it. The C5, C7 & Flamenco guitars all with Rosewood fingerboards are designed perfect & louder than many $800-$10,000 instruments. I have literally compared especially the C5 & C7 [which are good standard classical guitars at 650cm scale length & for serious performance] to many hand built expensive instruments & the volume & sound is quite noticeable & dramatic. I've done this with many Rosewood fingerboard guitars of various price ranges.

A guitar is a solo instrument. Much like an orchestra to itself. So more overtones & harmonics brings out the most of it with great effect. Rosewood or other hard woods are better for a fingerboard than ebony & no dampening of the guitars spectral dynamics tones, Rosewood adds to it [that's why it's used for back & sides]. Torres himself made many Rosewood fingerboard guitars. Luthiers only use ebony because that's what guitarists want based on a false impression & reputation of being better. But it's not, & all kinds of interesting guitar engineering went into hand made guitars that could easily have been remedied by using a different fingerboard & different strings other than rectified Nylon or Pro Arte Nylon 6.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great strings at a great price!, November 23, 2009

This review is from: D'Addario EJ45 Pro-Arte Nylon Classical Guitar Strings, Normal Tension (Electronics)
I've been using this model of strings since I first started playing in 2003 and they've been awesome! They're good not only for beginners but intermediate classical guitarists, as well.

I plan on switching to the composites for this model just to see how they stack up, but I don't really have any complaints about them. I had bought these strings on recommendation from a fellow classical guitarist who I had very much respect in (I haven't talked to him in a while, but I'm sure he's still a great guitarist) and multiple sites I browsed regarding buying strings and installing them were fans of the D'Addario Pro-Artes.

I'm not an expert on different kinds of strings so I don't have much else to compare to other than guitars I've played in stores or that friend have owned, but I felt like these strings have had great longevity for me as long as I wiped them down after practices/performances and washed my hands before picking up my guitar. Even when they were past their prime they actually held pretty decent sound, but obviously not at the quality that they do when they're fresh. I get really nice, rich sound quality from them when they're fresh.

As I've gotten better guitars these strings have still continued to serve me well as they provide as loud a volume as the quality of guitar I'm playing on should provide, and they've just felt really nice on my fingers overall. Part of why I don't like steel string acoustics is that they're kind of harsh on my fingers, which is really bad for when you can't practice every day because you're on vacation or something, whereas I'm able to pick up my guitar with these strings easily after a break in practice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Changed a mediocre guitar to a delightful guitar, February 17, 2012
By
Joanna Daneman (Middletown, DE USA) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE) (COMMUNITY FORUM 04) (TOP 10 REVIEWER) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: D'Addario EJ45 Pro-Arte Nylon Classical Guitar Strings, Normal Tension (Electronics)
Despite having played ukulele and guitar as a youth, I didn't realize that strings matter; so when I pulled out a guitar that belonged to my late husband, I remembered that (a) I never liked that guitar, a classical Yamaha model, nothing special and (b) my recent experiments with various ukulele strings have resulted in a respect for what the right strings can do for any instrument.

I bought a set of these strings and strung up the Yamaha. The instrument went from absolutely bland mediocre to a rich, deep, ringing tone, especially in the lower registers.

The strings are well-marked; labels are glued to the ends of the string to tell you who's who. The E string has a thinner area at the end, to allow you to tie off the end on your bridge. (The rest of the wound strings do not have this.)

I'm used to playing with normal tension; I don't like slack tension, but your feelings on this may vary and depending on the kind of guitar you play, you may want the high or low tension instead. The bottom line is that strings are very individualistic and can change the character of your instrument. I now have a very playable guitar and I think these strings sound wonderful.

I have gone through many types of classical guitar strings, and this by far is the best one I have used. Since I moved to a small town I could not find replacement strings. Fortunately Amazon had them on stock, so I did not have to wait long to play my classical guitar again. I would not change these strings for any other brand.

This review is from: D'Addario EJ45 Pro-Arte Nylon Classical Guitar Strings, Normal Tension (Electronics)
I got these strings to replace my originals after two years. Initially I had bought the Hard Tension Type as they were the only ones available locally, and I hated them. They sounded like crap. So I decided to buy Normal Tension instead, and I have not been disappointed. They sound great, don't ring as much as hard tension, easier to play, and keep their tuning easily. I tuned them a few times after installation as expected, but almost two months have passed and they're still in tune.

All in all, its a really good product and not too expensive either.

I'm not a big time user of nylon strings. I only have two nylon string guitars and only play then occasionally. Although Pro art strings are more expensive than some other strings they do not seem to stretch as much. It takes several days to get the cheap strings to hold tune for any length of time. I think the Pro Art strings seem to improve the trebles and give a little more ring and sustain. I gave these strings a 4 star only because I have not compared them with other high quality strings. 5 star, to me, would imply that they are top of the line. Although I like these strings I'm just not sure they are the best.

Excellent sound, stretched in quickly. Shipment was here 3 days after ordering. Could not ask for better service. The local music store wanted $17 for what I thought was a lesser quality string.

It is a good string, but I have to tune my quitter every 15 minutes after playing. I don't know it is a problem of strings or not. Maybe It is new and needs more times being better.

Grover FX12RD Firestix Light-Up Drumstix Radiant, Red

I almost passed on these because of the low ratings people have given them. I took a chance on them anyway because I figured the fun effect they could have out weighed the chance that they were as bad as the reviews said they were. The fact is, these are pretty cool. I have played with them for about 1 hour total now and they work great and are holding up to quite a beating. Far more than I thought they would. They light up bright and look pretty awesome.

Having said that, there are a few things these are not. First as mentioned in other reviews they do not have the same feel as a wood stick. I see no reason to lower their rating for that though because after all, they are not wood sticks! Wood sticks are pretty rigid where these have some flex to them. They're not rubbery just not rigid like wood. This is likely so that they are durable. Unlike wood, plastic has no grain structure. If these were made more rigid they would likely be brittle and break easily. These are likely a compromise between rigidity and durability. Overall I'd say the effect is very livable and they are very playable.

Also, these will likely not be as durable as a good wooden stick. These again are not wood and plastic after all. The thing is, wood sticks don't last forever and even break during use. These also will not be every day sticks and possibly not even all night sticks. They will be sticks where the added effect of a brightly lighted stick is worth the loss of feel and possibly durability.

If you're thinking about these for an added effect for a show or a little novelty when your playing, I say go for it. They do appear to be able to hold up pretty well to hard use and for limited uses they can be pretty cool. Just don't expect that you will throw away your wood sticks, that's not the point of these.

Lanikai LU-21C Concert Ukulele

Ok, I know a lot of people are saying this isn't a good instrument. On the contrary, it is fantastic. This little thing gives off a great sound. IT IS NOT A TOY. This is an instrument, and it sounds like one too-- but you don't have to dish out $200. This is a great starting uke, and I much prefer it to a soprano size because they tune the same, but the concert size is easier to hold and to play chords.
Now, if you go onto almost ANY amazon uke review, you'll get this, "This thing is a piece of junk. Goes out of tune the second I hit the string. Hate it. Never buying from this seller again." Ok, sometime's that's true, but what those people don't know is.....
It takes a while for uke strings to stretch out.
Magic. So, while people here may say it goes out of tune, that's because they're nice aquilla-gut stings are brand-spanking new, and since they're made out of nylon and gut, they take longer to stretch out.
Shipping: So then they talk about damaged fretboards, body, stuff like that. If you'd rather not have that, I'd recommend wandering over to your local music store. They might even have one that's been on the shelf so the strings will be stretched and ready to play. That's what I did.

Stylophone Retro Pocket Synth

I saw that Bowie used 1 of these little things in his song Space Oddity & decided to pick 1 up for kicks, due to its miniscule price & cool retro looks. I really enjoy playing around with this thing. It's kind of nerdy, but awesome at the same time. It sounds great in the right context. I played a duet with my husband a few hours ago. He has a Yamaha P155 digital piano, and the Stylophone blends quite well with its own unique little organ voice. Some of the sounds that the Stylophone makes are reminiscent of the the Nintendo and Atari games I played growing up(not bad kind of nostalgic actually). It's pretty easy to play. I'm more of a guitar player, but I've found it easy to pick out songs by ear. It's great for 80's synth pop & new wave covers. This gadget will in no way replace a real keyboard, but it's a fun addition to any musicians collection of STUFF. I like that you can hook it up to your MP3 player or run it through an amp with effects for more tonal weirdness. I've actually just ordered the Stylophone beatbox from the UK because the clips of it on Youtube seem equally awesome, and I can't seem to find a seller here in the US. Hey Amazon, how bout getting some Stylophone beatboxes on your site too!

Acoustic Research Portable Wireless Speaker (AWS53)

PROS
* Good signal strength - I tested it at various spots in my house and yard and never had an issue with receiving a signal
* Cute design - looks a bit like a lantern from Pottery Barn or Restoration Hardare
* Not too flimsy. It's not heavy, but it won't blow over in a breeze, either
* Weather resistant (though it says not weather proof--"you can take it outside, but don't leave it there")
* Can run on 6 AA batteries or a power cord (people have complained that will make it tip over, but my unit has small feet on the bottom, so you can run the cord underneath without any issues). TIP: if you switch from electric to battery power, be sure to unplug the cord from the unit or it will disable the batteries
* Can either broadcast wirelessly, or can plug your iPod in directly
* Decent sound. Not fantastic but not bad either... loud enough to hear around the house or while working outside, without bothering the neighbors

CONS
* If it's dark outside, it's hard to find the "power" button (which is the 2nd of about 5 buttons; the large/first button is "bass boost"), so you'll have to turn it on inside, bring a flashlight, memorize the button location, or fumble a bit
* Sure has a lot of wires for something designed to be portable... if you're using it, the broadcast unit MUST be plugged in (and has no off switch, so when you're done you must unplug it), and then has an 8 FOOT cable connecting it to my iPod, which seems like a whole lot of cord for something that I usually keep just 2 feet away. (To be fair, if you plug your iPod directly into the unit, that cord is only 3 feet long, which is reasonable)
