200L Bronze : John Pearse Strings

These are the best strings I have tried to date. I used Gibson Masterbuilt but they have stopped making them now so I had to look for something else. I'm glad I did. I use these on my J45 and J35, and also on my Yamaha LL11E and they sound brilliant on all three guitars, and play really well. I will try them on the HD28 when I've run out of Martin Strings. I can't really fault the John Pearse strings. I always use Bronze strings, not phosphor Bronze - they just sound a little more earthy which is the sound I prefer from an acoustic guitar. I play mainly fingerstyle with nails and the strings are excellent for this - but they do sound really good with a plectrum too. One thing I was afraid of when I stopped using the Gibson strings was a metallic sound on the top three strings and of all the sets I tried, the John Pearse strings were the best and the least metallic, even from new. They last a decent length of time too - I've only just started using them in the last two or three months but I am still on my first sets! They're definitely worth trying out.
