Europian Guitar Quartet
"D'Addario strings let me feel secure that they will stay in the right tune, even if I changed them a couple of hours before a concert. They give me the possibility to create the colors, dynamics, and effects I want to express on the stage or in the studio. Every year, I discover something new in D'Addario's string production."

"In the past few years, I've been using more and more rectified trebles which are very close to the sound of the gut strings. I am using them for the historical instruments, to get the authentic touch of the of 18th and 19th century. I also use them for old guitars which were constructed for gut strings."
