No sugar coating


My Takamine sounded absolutely dead but the strings- no signs of corrosion, still very shiny. That out-of-the-box condition.


A quick re-string with a set of no-nonsense D'Addario really made my day. FYI the previous set in this guitar was a coated set, lots of longevity promises but very little delivery on tone. I believe I can take good care of a set of non-coated string set. On a regular playing basis, I can keep it in kicking good tone for more than a month. No more coated set for my acoustics. All those sweet promises without real delivery- hmph!
