A pleasant surprise (but expensive and don't hold tone for long)

stimresp 04.03.2021

Must admit, I was initially sceptical about trying these strings on my Ortega Guitarele, which I bought essentially as small practice guitar to carry on my touring bicycle.

To my surprise and delight, these strings work very well, good tension with a deep, rich tone and decent projection.

Just be careful when installing them, as the three (red) low strings can begin to unwind at the ends if you pull them too hard.

It took a couple of days for the tuning to settle, but all is stable now, the intonation is somewhat improved, and I'm pleased with the sound and playability. Nice looks too.

Expensive but worth it if you want to turn your guitalele into a mini, standard-tuned guitar.

*update* after about one month I found that they became rather stale and lost their projection. They hold their tuning but they just seem more quiet than initially. For the money I expected they would last longer.

is really nice to have , or to be able to play standard tuning on a small instrument, they sound very good. it is true that you don't get the roundness of the instrument but they are very playable.

Great Strings

These strings are lovely and have a great sound. They are quite thick but that is fine once you get used to it. I will definitely buy again.

Lovely quality

I used these strings on a Yamaha guitalele to convert it into a small guitar for my then 5yo as he wanted a guitar like Mummee. It has worked brilliantly, perfect size for his little hands. The strings themselves are good quality, nice to play and most importantly sound beautiful. I also like the single red string as it helped with him identifying the different strings esp useful if you are trying to get him to only play the bottom three strings whilst holding single finger chords.
