D'addario custom, review
Hi,
I've been trying different configuration of d'addario strings lately.
I've found one i like, and want to share, as they are pretty cheap and seem to last.
The one i've been recording with are about one month old.
Here's the set
C- 24 rectified nylon
G- 31 rectified nylon
D- 24 wound on nylon
A- 28 W
F- 33W
C- 43w
String lenght is 58,5cm
Those strings can be ordered from oudstrings.com
The tension is rather on the low side.
I have no idea of the tension weight, but i don't really care, as the most important to me is how it feels under the fingers.
Hope it can be useful, it took me some times to get it right.

I would vouch for the quality of the D'addario Rectified Nylons... They have that very warm and clear sound which suits me... Franck plays beautifully
and the Faruk Turunz Oud and this nice combination of strings just add,to something already special!

I am setting up a few configurations like this so that you don't have to go picking out strings individually. I am adding this one to the list, as
well as some of the sets I worked on with D'addario.
Should be up later today. I also am setting up an option to order Mari wound strings with various treble choices, since so many people prefer other
trebles on those sets.
Daniel Mari Wound with Custom Trebles
Some of the strings are currently showing "out of stock" but I am checking the inventory and it should be corrected later today.
cheers,
Brian
