LM
The original and best for Manouche style guitars
Lismore Music 02.10.2020
I have tried lots of different strings for Manouche style playing, but I always come back to Argentines. Great strings and a great company who cares about its customers. A few years ago there was a production issue where there were a lot of dead A strings. When I contacted the company about it they sent me a few replacement packs, along with a complementary t-shirt with their logo on it.

I've been buying these strings for years and aside from the very brief period mentioned above, they have been very consistent with absolutely the best tone for that Django style.

Authentic sound
Anonymous 27.02.2016
I have limited experience with Maccaferi/Django style guitars and playing, so I bought the strings on the recommendation of a well-know guitar teacher in Dublin.

To my ears, these strings deliver an authentic 'Django-esque' tone, and the feel and tension are excellent.

Tradicinis gypsy tone – sausas, aiškus ir labai konkretus
jazzovas 29.04.2026
Naudoju ant gypsy jazz gitaros. Turi tą klasikinį „Argentine“ skambesį – sausas, greitas attack, aiškus artikuliavimas. Puikiai tinka ritmui, nes garsas nesusilieja, lieka kontrolė.

Single note linijose taip pat gerai „skaito“ – nėra per daug sustain’o, bet už tai labai aiškus garsas. Būtent tas „cut“, kurio reikia šiame stiliuje.

Jaučiasi gana standžios, reikia priprasti prie tempimo ir feel’o. Nėra universaliausios – jei ieškai šiltesnio, minkštesnio akustinio garso, gali būti per „sausos“.

Ilgaamžiškumas normalus tokiam tipui – garsas laikosi stabiliai, bet kaip visos gypsy stygos, su laiku praranda ryškumą.

Bendrai – jei groji gypsy jazz, praktiškai standartas. Jei ne – gali būti per specifinės.

Best strings around
Nerz 18.05.2017
I love these strings on my Gitane guitar. They are rich and warm but also have the necessary twang that's essential for Gypsy Jazz.
Highly recommended.
