I have been using Adagio strings for several years now. I use them on both acoustic and electric guitars and they are excellent re tonally and longevity. I find they are great value and up there with the more famous type regarding quality and have. a great silky feel that lasts. I won't use anything else now. Try them. You wont be disappointed.

Firstly they are quarter the price of the elixirs (don't be fooled by the £5 a set elixirs that are around,they are cheap and nasty strings in nice packaging) that I have been using for many years, which have become so expensive that I have not been changing them as often as I should, even though they do stay bright for ages a year+ is pushing it a bit! I have tried various brands of coated strings over the years but they all started off a bit dull-rather like elixir polyweb, then deteriorated from there. These sound bright and zingy like nanoweb or uncoated strings and though they have only been on a couple of weeks they still sound great, only time can tell if they match elixirs on longevity, but at the price I'll be happy to change them a bit more often. If you like the brightness of nanowebs I would certainly recommend you give these a shot, I hope they will start doing these in phosphor bronze too as that is usually my first choice.Read full review

I bought these to refurbish an old BM Spanish guitar. My initial plan was simply to make the old guitar serviceable, playable and suitable for a learner. I was delighted with the appearance of the strings, the ease with which I was able to stretch them and the quality of sound produced. The bass was rich and the treble end has a nice sharp and clear tone. The result was excellent, given that the guitar was not a high end instrument. I tried a Bach Sarabande and was surprised how well the strings performed. I would thoroughly recommend these as excellent value for money at very acceptable quality and performance. I would certainly consider buying these strings again, for my own classical guitar.

After rotosound increased in price I looked for some strings around the ten pound mark. These fit the bill perfectly. Easily better than the ultra cheap direct from China strings these have tone, body and strength. Buy.

Having previously bought Adagio acoustic strings I thought I'd give the electric ones a try, and see whether they're cheap or decent quality. The good news is that they're the latter. Well made, well wound strings, plain ones are equally tidy with good tight ball end twists. They don't have a colouring sound either : not too zingy, so I would recommend them for taming single coil pickups. Was genuinely surprised how much difference they made to a 35 year old strat I have. As previously mentioned, they aren't as pingy as EB's or DD's when new, they're smoother, to my ears. For the price, you can't go wrong. Highly recommended.
