I just got a cg172sf flamenco and i am having a lot of fun. however the sound of the high egb is too plasticy. will these help?

Yes, I believe so. However, an even better set for a Flamenco guitar would be the Sevilla Medium tension - clear basses, nice separation of chord tones, and snappy but sweet treble strings! Good luck!

Anyone have issues with these strings slipping? Especially the E?

What I do Eric is - line the hole in the tube/axle so it's straight up and down, Push the string down through the hole and pull the string through leaving a reasonable amount amount of slack. Turn the axle through one half turn and bring the end of the string (which is poking up towards you) over the string coming along from the neck and back down through the hole in the axle. To make sure it doesn't slip do this twice. When you want to change strings, unwind the string till it is as a loose as possible, take the loose end and push it backwards through the loop you made originally, enough so you can grab a piece of the string either side of the axle, then pull upwards., and Bob should be your uncle. Hope you can understand all that. Use the same technique on all the top four strings and you wont have any slippage. John

Schöner Klang, Hohe Dynamik

Nach Thomasik (davor Hannabach, Augustin) Nylon-Saiten, die mir etwas zu leise und weich waren, hab ich jetzt diese Carbon-Saiten aufgezogen. Auf der Elektroakustik Yamaha CGX 171CCA klingen sie wirklich super. Die Gitarre singt. Sogar die G-Saite ist nicht dumpf. Sie reagieren sehr dynamisch auf verschiedene Anschlagstärke. Die Bässe sind kräftig und auch nicht dumpf. Angeblich sind sie Normal-Tension, was aber zumindest subjektiv gar nicht stimmt. Die Saiten haben eine sehr hohe Spannung. Vibrato ist vor allem auf den Bass Saiten kaum realisierbar. Glissando ist sehr laut. Ich bin mir nicht sicher, ob ich diese Saiten auch auf eine zarte teure Konzertgitarre spannen würde, aber für mein Modell sind es bislang die mit Abstand besten Saiten. Sind hier auch bundrein. Bin begeistert vor allem von der G-Saite. Edit: Am 2. Tag, beim Üben von Läufen, also eher mäßige Beanspruchung, ist die Hohe E-Saite mittendrin (nicht am Sattel oder am Steg) gerissen. Vermutlich ein Fabrikations-Fehler.

Snapped and damaged my guitar. I'll stick to regular nylon strings.
