My classical guitar sounds best to me with Augustine "Gold" strings which I've been using since shortly after I had the guitar made in 1975. A previous classical guitar that belonged to my mother (made in the 1930s) which an airline lost, sounded best with Savarez low tension strings. The factory string choice, D'Addario Pro-Arté Extra Hard Tension, worked well for my Taylor NS72ce-LTD.

Augustine "Gold" strings are hard to find. For years I used to have to buy a case of them as music stores felt they wouldn't be able to sell the remainder of a minimum order if I only bought a set or two. Now I can order a single set through the internet.

These are Augustine "Gold" strings:
