I just installed Savarez Cantiga Premium 510 MRJP with hard-tension basses and normal-tension trebles (3rd is carbon [Alliance] while 2nd and 1st are nylon [New Cristal]) on my Yamaha NCX1.

The result is a brighter tone with punchier bass. The carbon third eliminates the tubbiness of the 3rd string.

My preference for hard-tension basses is because I plan to use alternate tunings. The basses will therefore be down-tuned.

If you would prefer normal-tension across all the strings, get Savarez Cantiga Premium 510 MRP. I use these on my flamenco guitars since they're always in standard tuning.
