Pyramid Nylon

I decided to test these strings because of the low price and also because I've been happy with other Pyramid products in the past. I didn't expect much at this price but I wanted to give them a fair chance.

The first problem was the length of the A and D-strings. They weren't too short but it was VERY close. You really need to make sure you don't waste too much string at the bridge. You could easily run out of string length at the tuning pegs. Seriously, how much can it cost to make the A and D-strings just 2-3 cm longer? I tested two sets and both were the same: The A and D-strings were just barely long enough.

The tuning stability was fine once the strings had settled. The sound was ok but with a noticeable lack of clarity compared to the strings I normally use (which to be fair cost 4 times as much). I would consider these strings more than adequate for practise but I wouldn't use them for recordings or concerts.

The main problem for me was the tension though. These strings have much too low tension for my taste. I guess I was fooled by the fact that Pyramid call them "medium" tension. I guess I should have checked the actual tension figures. These strings are more like ultra low tension from most other brands (except possibly D'Addario who also like to call their low tension strings "normal" and "hard"...).

If you like low tension strings and want something cheap for practise you will probably be very happy with these strings.

If you want the best possible sound or like strings that most manufacturers would refer to as "medium" tension... keep searching, these strings are not for you.

I managed to use this set for my classic guitar for a very long time no matter I bought it very cheap here and for that reasons I was having some doubts about the quality. Normally one would change the strings set let say monthly but at times, when you're playing occasionally, don't change it so frequently ;-).
For that reason, no matter the whole set sits for long mounted on my guitar, their sound was not getting dull neither the metal covered strings rusted.

I may say you can even buy a bunch of them all thogether, always resulting in a cheap price, to allow to change them frequently for almost no money and have a very good sound and easy smooth strings to play with.
All in all I recommend those for sure. Cheers.
