D' Addario EJ45 VS Dogal Maestrale

I'm sorry in advance for the playing. This is not a competition between strings video. It is just a very well known set (D'Addario EJ45) compared to a not so well known set (Dogal Maestrale low tension flamenco) so you can hear differences in timbre to help you decide if you want to try it yourself. Guitar: Vassilis Lazarides flamenco blanca 0:00 Recuerdos de la Alhambra (F. Tárrega) 3:01 Lagrima (F. Tárrega) 4:21 Adelita (F. Tárrega) 5:16 Verano Porteño (A.Piazzolla) 6:48 Asturias (Leyenda) (Isaac Albéniz) 10:18 Prelude No.5 (H. Villa-Lobos) 14:18 Prelude No.1 (H. Villa-Lobos) 17:49 Etude No.11 (H. Vila-Lobos) 20:54 Variations on a theme by Mozart (Fernando Sor) 24:10 Gnossienne No.1 (Erik Satie) 25:44 Capricho Arabe (F. Tárrega) 28:05 Solea (Sabicas) 30:40 Tango falseta (Jerónimo Maya) 32:47 Simple buleria compas 35:40 Guajiras de Lucia (Paco de Lucia) 37:55 B.W.V. 1006a - J.S. Bach What cannot be heard on the video: Dogal Maestrale has a material that is not used in the treble strings by other companies and the colour of this nylon is blue. It is a bit stiffer than normal nylon and feels a bit harder, so the low tension here has the same feel of tension as the medium D'Addario EJ45. It is definitely brighter. Given this brightness the 1st string might sound a bit harsh on some guitars and that is why Dogal includes an additional diamante 1st string in their classical Maestrale sets. Overall, although a bit pricier than normal, the Maestrale worth the try. Subscribe and like if you want more videos like these. Thanks!
