WARNING: the trebles are very slippery, and the standard knot at the bridge tie block slips. My first string did, and left a mark on the soundboard. The trebles should be tied at the bridge with a double loop followed by the customary knot as shown in the photo, and looped three times at the roller (twice for the thicker G string and a turn to ensure that the string winds over the loose tail). With this kind of tying, it's necessary to eyeball the extra string length at both ends because there isn't much surplus.
The settling time is no longer than for the standard D'Addario EJ45. I leave it tuned slightly sharp before putting the guitar away, and that helps.
[*For the Concert guitar, Savarez 500 CJ High Tensions choked the tone, and were very hard to fret even with adjustments to the truss rod and 3 mm clearance of the 6th string at the 12th fret.]

These strings are worth every penny- period. Why? Because they last so long compared to your basic Nylon strings set and are just percussion brillant and bullet proof even when you are striking them constantly with a lightning attack.
Although I find myself playing in Open G/Spanish/Hawaiian-slack tunings alot lately- these strings are still perfect for the job- they keep their bright responsive tone and do not turn to limp noodles in your hands like conventional nylon strings do after a little bit of playing- these guys seem to go on and on.........really. Although I am not a classical player, I have played my fair share and these satisfy all my requirements for classical strings with a little bit of edge to their attack.
Definitely 5 stars for quality, durablity and most of all brillant sound.... A most worthy splurge to buy & try !
These strings really did make a difference for my cheap guitar.
The trebles are clear nylon and seem a little bit thinner than D'Addarios. The tone is bright, clean and very clear. Even the G-string which normally sounds very dull has increased brightness and clarity. The bases also sound great. They sound brighter and more metallic than the D'Addarios.
Overall, these are expensive strings, but for me they are worth it in terms of the sound they produce. If they last 3 months, I think it would be money well spent. After that, I will probably try the D'Addario EJ45C Pro-Arte Composite ($5 cheaper, and also great reviews).

Anyways, sound wise, If I could have the bass strings from the D'Addarios and the trebles from the Savarez, I would be very happy indeed. Note, the strings do seem thinner than the D'Addario's which took a little getting used to, also the pink ends of the strings go near the bridge. Just a heads up.
