    Santa Cruz SCGC Parabolic Mid Tension Acoustic Strings

    Bought 3 sets of these on a gamble and put a set on a Yamaha FG5 and have been amazed by how good these strings are and my next move is to see how they fair on a Guild D50 Don’t really do reviews but these strings are worthy and deserve the effort

    Not as good as expected

    The sixth string has less tension than what I usually play,lead the action lower then normal and caused unexpected buzzing noise while playing the fretted notes, which also shorter the sustain. Since the string energy as been wasted somehow, but the tone with other strings is fantastic. And I also step up a whole tone to make sure the tension works as normal to reduce the buzzing noise on the sixth string. So for those who willing to try, if you use light tension before, this might works fine, but if you were using mid tension, maybe try mid tension for this one to avoid the problem I have.

    Santa Cruz Parabolic stings

    Only use Santa Cruz parabolic strings on my Santa Cruz H model. They just seem to be the perfect string for that guitar.

    Still evaluating.

    So far so good. I do like them a lot, just need a bit more time to test their longevity. Never thought I would move away from Elixir Phos/Bronze nano, but the Santa Cruz parabolic strings just might do it.

    Disappointing strings

    Firstly, prompt delivery and service, as usual from the Acoustic Centre. Great store to deal with. The strings though are a massive disappointment. I strung my Martin OM-42 with light tension and Maton 808TE with mid tension SC strings. They both sound "dead" - really attenuated overtones and poor string balance. I get the tension idea, but the light set just felt wrong - the treble E felt way tighter than either the B or (especially) G. Maybe these sound great on SC guitars (I would try that :) ) but not for me. Previously trialled on a Taylor 614CE as well.
