High Vs Normal Tension Classical Guitar Strings 

there is no such thing as carbon vs normal tension.carbons come in normal or hard tension.

@louiscyfer6944 thanks for your comment, please check out my video on carbon strings

Bro really went all out 😂

I liked the High Tension. Thank you for watching

Thanks so much!

Hi Roy, thank you for watching, normal tension are easier to play and my personal favourite

thank you for watching

Glad it helped!

Glad it was helpful!

Appreciate it! Thank you for watching

thank you for watching Michel

@@Andy7String Based on that I've decided that it is the high tension strings that I prefer

Thank you Farhad, the effects are from MotionVFX, thank you for watching, new video out soon!

Hi, thank you for the reply. I do struggle more to play acoustic and this is def not the primary instrument. Having said that, my skill level is always being worked on so appreciate the feed back from you. The guitar is a Yamaha NTX900FM. I made this video as it was currently something I needed to know at the time and hope that the info in it does provide some help. Thank you for your feedback, advice and watching

Hi, changing tensions can def play on the neck, however, you can adjust the neck to pretty much the same position. There should not be any hurt though :) Part of a good setup is giving the nut a slight adjustment in the neck to change the bend so that the strings sit correctly. Thank you for watching.

Hi Cory, Sounds like good advice, thank you for watching

Thanks

Hi, you have a good ear, it was tuned down for that video. Have tried it at standard as well as eFlat and have the same results, slightly less noticeable on standard. Thank you for watching!

Hi Alvarez, it does sound like a high tension string will help you out. You may also consider the strength you use to hit the strings, when you play hard it has a similar effect on some setups. Thank you for watching

Hi, it is best to give the neck a bit of an adjustment to get things good for the tension. Thank you for watching

Hey Richard, Thank you for watching, cats are awesome! I find that putting effects before the amp for a classical guitar should be limited to mild compression, in the loop, a bit of verb does a world of good.

Thank you! Cheers!

Good luck!!

Thank you for watching. Yamaha does do a great job

Hi Harry, high tension may be just what you looking for, there is a variance between brands but they usually very similar. Thank you for watching

Попробуй сначала карбоновые струны нормального натяжения.

The yamaha could probably do with a bit of setup to get rid of the buzz. Thank you for watching

Hi Morris, thank you for watching. I find that a good neck adjustment allows for a different tension string

Hi Danny, I would go with the normal tension to be honest, they are easier to play. Tone is for the listener though, thank you for watching

Hi Georg, they do have the tone for it. Am working on a carbon strings comparison as well! Thank you for watching

Thank you for watching

thank you for watching

Thanks for the info!

Hi Orio, it means that the frequency range for the high is almost bell like sounding in nature I guess, it is pleasing

Hey Jax, the new strings stretch a bit when first put on, if you play them in a bit they start to settle after a few days, this video was made directly after the restring which was challenging. Thank you for watching

@@Andy7String Thanks for the speedy reply! I’ve found so many conflicting answer and see some people stretch the strings themselves. I’ll restring my guitar today thank you so much!! Btw have you found that it might be beneficial to break in your fingers and callouses with higher tension strings? Or might that be too damaging? I find the lower action much easier for the style of music I play, but since it’s been so long I don’t want to jack up my fingers.

@@itsokpapi Giving the strings a stretch speeds up the break in process but after a couple of days they sit fine. For gauges, I play the lightest gauge as possible, it will help if you press a note and play it and release the tension on the finger each time you play it till you find the right pressure to play just before the note starts to buzz, the lighter your touch the better. Guitar is hard enough, give yourself every opportunity you can. Let me know how it goes

Hi Jiha, the normal tensions would be good as they are slightly easier to play. Thank you for watching

And great vid btw, exactly what I was looking for.

thank you for watching

Thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed it

HI Sameeksha, this is up to your personal taste, generally, thicker strings provide more bass tamber. Thank you for watching

Hi, the cats :) glad you found the strings you want, thank you for watching

Declawing cats is like cutting off their fingers. Its immoral and cruel to do so. Teach your cats not to claw with a clicker by rewarding good behavior. Just saying. Declawing should be only done for medical reasons.

@@RandyH524 wsup, love ma little guys and wouldn't touch their claws, I speak cat so no clicker required. Thank you for watching.

hi, I don't remember slapping :)

Hi, hard tension will def apply more tension on the neck. I adjust mine every now and then to keep it in check. Thank you for watching

Thank you for watching

thank you for watching, am working on it. Doing a compare between normal and carbon, will try leaving the pic out :)

thank you for watching

@@Andy7String your welcome 😀

Hi David, that's a great question. Intonation normally refers to the pitch of strings when played open, however, it can also be applied to fretted notes, often when pushing down on a fret board the string can be pushed higher in pitch. i do this sometimes if playing under pressure and pushing down hard. Its def something that needs further investigation. Thank you for watching

Intonation in general refers to the relationships between pitches that we hear or, actually, define, as being "in tune" with each other. In this context, it refers for practical purposes to the relationship between the pitch of a given string when played open and the pitches produced when fretting that same string. So the question really boils down to "Will a change in the tension of my strings affect my ability to play in tune?" Squeezing a string sharp is about the sensitivity of your touch. [I play steel-string acoustic almost exclusively. When I first pick up an electric I'm squeezing the shit out of the strings, and everything I'm fretting is sharp, and I have to consciously relax and adjust.] Whether or not it even CAN be played in tune is about how your instrument is set up. It's very easy to check, by comparing the pitches produced by playing (1) the harmonic at XII & (2) the fretted note at XII. They should be in PERFECT unison. They probably will never all be in perfect unison on any guitar that does not have individually adjustable saddle pieces. That includes every acoustic guitar I've ever seen or heard of. But they can, on a decent instrument, all be close enough that overall when playing you will always be very close - close enough for the vast majority of us to almost never hear the difference doing anything other than the check referred to above. (In fact, a real, skilled perfectionist will hear problems no matter how perfectly your guitar is set up. This is because of two things: 1, the standards by which the frets are positioned are an imperfect compromise, & 2, the standard pitches that we've agreed upon are also an imperfect compromise. If you really want to delve into it, this is a complex and fascinating subject.) To really answer this question you'd probably have to adjust the neck after each change, because as you've mentioned, lower tension strings are allowing the neck to straighten a bit compared to the shape it takes under higher tension. And the whole root of the problem is that a string has to be stretched a bit in order to be fretted. And not every string changes pitch at the same rate per unit of stretch. (The overall length of the string is one of the factors affecting the degree to which the pitch changes relative to a given unit of stretch. Hence the individually adjustable saddles on guitars whose tone will not suffer noticeably for it - aka most electrics. And the slant given the saddles of the rest.) So among others, one of the implications is that any change in the height of a given string will affect the distance that it has to be stretched in order to be fretted, which in turn affects the pitch at which it will play once it is fretted, which means you've affected the accuracy of its intonation. And a change in neck curvature will result in a change in the height of that string above any given fret. This is why I say that if you're really determined to isolate the variable of string set tension re: intonation, you're likely to have to adjust the neck after changing strings. That change in height is likely very slight. But this is a case in which very slight changes can make noticeable, audible differences. And with all this said, I wish I could help to actually answer the question. But I can't. The only classical guitar I have available is somewhat old and very cheap and does not have an adjustable truss rod. So I can't control the curvature of the neck at all. And the (only) way I can adjust string heights is via the saddle height: sanding it down, and gluing strips of rosewood veneer to it to go up. I'm not gonna do that, going back and forth, now, for this. Sorry!

thank you for the feedback

true that :) Thank you for watching

Hi Juan, I do hybrid but understand what you saying, thank you for watching

Hi, thank you for watching. The differences are noted in the first part of the video

Hi Henry, thank you for watching

Hi, will try make it more interesting next time, than you for watching

thank you for watching :)
