Just took the survey, hope I got in on the free set.

I've been using Pro-Arte strings for a long time and was curious about carbons, haven't tried any brand of carbon strings yet.

Great offer, Don. I appreciate it (and have taken advantage of it!). Thank you. I also plan to give the Dynacores a try soon.

Perfect timing as I'm trying out several sets on my classical to determine a favorite.

Great, just completed the survey. EJ45's are my go-to strings, but I'd be curious to try out some Carbons.

Thanks, Don. Very curious about this strings and have been a Pro Arte user for quite some time on various guitars (both Crossover and Classical). Is "hard" tension enough for a Taylor nylon? I notice there's no "extra hard" for this model.

I got a set of hard tension and put them on my Alhambra 7P. Prefer them to the nylon EJ45s that were on it before.

My thinks to D'Addario for the new product and the free set. (smile)

I use both D'Addario EJ45s and Oasis strings on my two classicals. I always like to try new sets.

Got 'em! Thanks, Don!!!

Looking forward to trying these on my Taylor. Hopefully hard tension will work just as well.
