Having been a fan of D'Addario classical guitar strings for decades I have recently felt the need for a different sound and have auditioned lots of the current brands and popular tensions. I was really surprised to find that these Savarez Corum basses combined with the Savarez Alliance trebles are a fantastic set. The Cantiga basses with the Alliance trebles are also excellent.
The medium Corum basses are a great feel under the left hand and are better than the equivalent D'Aaddario's. The Corum's hold the note centre really well and have lots of pleasing overtones and harmonics. There's plenty of grunt there as well as the subtleties and they are really easy to play and the intonation is spot on.
The medium Alliance trebles are very easy on the left hand and feel great under the right hand. The alliance trebles have perfect intonation and whilst bright they are not brittle like other "carbon" strings. The real killer with these strings is their ability to stay in tune during a long playing session. I have had trebles from most makers that drift sharp (yes sharp!) due to the mechanical energy being transferred to heat within the fibre/molecular structure. "Carbon" strings do not drift sharp. Anyway, this Corum and Alliance combination is the best I've experienced for balance, intonation, sound and playability. At last a set of strings that is as near to perfect as can be, thank you Savarez. Thanks Thomann for cheapest prices too...

I have Alhambra 7f flamenco guitar. The sound of the guitar with these strings is amazing. Great for nylon string styles such as flamenco, classical and latin.

These strings are great ! I use them for more than 10 years now on my Antonio Ruben (cedar). They've got all I'm looking for : Strong and warm basses, but well defined. Nice midds and quiet rare : warm, but strong and distinct trebles. Try them, you won't be disappointed !
