Speechless

If only some had told me earlier to stop wasting money on Ernie Ball, D'Addario, and DR... I have a Warwick German Pro Series 5 strings Corvette $$. The problem with the Warwick bridge is that the low B string saddle is the same size as the other strings; hence, untapered B strings aren't going to sit properly. I've tried D'Addario 127 steel strings as the B string is tapered, but it sounded pretty thin.

These Sadowsky strings and my Warwick together absolutely sing. Plus I'm a big fan of standard 45-130 gauge. These strings add a whole lot of brilliance and treble that a lot of Warwick models seem to lack - especially in passive mode.

And the black wrapping on top of the strings where the strings meet the tuning pegs look absolutely cool. Sadowsky was one of my last options in my journey to find the perfect strings for my Warwick, and I think I've finally reached the finish line.

Great strings!

Love those strings, both in Nickel and SS variation. Bright, tight, they last, they intonate properly. Those are my #1 at the moment.

Best Strings So Far

Best string so far to pair my NYC. Compared to DR's I would choose Sadowsky's any day.

Sound ist top, satte Bässe, crispe Höhen, beim Slappen knallen sie richtig.
Aber nach 10 Tagen haben sie deutlich nachgelassen ( 1-2 h spielen pro Tag)
