    D'Addario NB1253 Nickel Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings, Light

    • The tone had been sounding thin to me and these really work it up.
    • Terrible tone issues,
    • Great tone , awesome bass and volume
    • Nice woody tone
    • They add a "bite" to the mid range that adds undertones and complex rich tones
    • Love the tone of these strings.
    • I usually use the 80/20 type of strings because I like the mellower tone.
    • I put them on a Seagull S6, and normally the guitar had a warm tone, and even with other types of strings (Ernie Ball, Elixer, Martin, other D'Addario strings), I always loved the sound
    • Terrible tone issues,
    • Very nice strings with a great tone
    • I like the tone of these just a little better as they age
    • On my Breedlove guitar (spruce top with solid rose wood back and sides) these strings have a bright but balance tone.
    • Twenty minutes to install and these D’Addario strings sucked out all the tone in that guitar like a Hoover vacuum cleaner.
    • The Big Baby is a small bodied guit that tends to emphasize strings that are too bright, but these delivered a good balanced tone
    • Twenty minutes to install and these D’Addario strings sucked out all the tone in that guitar like a Hoover vacuum cleaner.
    • Very nice tone with these strings.
    • I really like the sound, its more bright and chirpy at first, and then settles into a warmer tone.
    • Great sound, once these strings are broken in they have a very true tone
    • Bright tone that really gives you a full sound
    • Love the Tone!
    • Balanced Tension improves tone and “feel” all across the fretboard
    • These strings are a much clearer tone, and personally made my 000 Martin guitar sound great, and gave it more character with singing
    • Nice bright tone.
    • Great tone
    • Great feel and great tone
    • You need to decide if you like the tone, but I think you will.
    • I wouldn't recommend them for immediate use in stage or studio as they don't sound good at first, but if you want one good set of strings that will last for a while with good tone and even intonation, I think they're a good buy
    • I hate the tone of 80/20 or 92/8
    • Have a lovely Martin with unbelievable tone and sustain
    • Great tone and easy on the fingers.
    • really like the tone of these strings, dark and bright at the same time, it's going to be hard to want to try something else after playing these for the last couple of months
    • These are warm, loud, articulate, bring out the best tone and balance, and really make me want to play.
    • Using them on two different guitars and the tone is superb
    • Balanced Tension improves tone and “feel” all across the fretboard
    • they're strong and stretch well and give a nice tone.
    • They produce a very bright tone
    • Really enjoy the warm tone these strings have given my martin D16
    • Amazing breadth of tone, especially strong mids, incredibly enhancing the guitar wood's tone (brings out such a beautiful woody tone)!
    • n’t last very long,broke a string after 4 hours
    • They stay tuned well and have a nice crisp n' brifht sound
    • 2 days in, E string broke
    • Not only do these strings sound good from the top E string to the bottom E string, I noticed that the sustain is excellent and I'm tuning my guitar's less often.
