Saved me a setup cost
OzanBilgin 30.05.2022
I'm a long time Elixir customer. In 2020, I had bought a Yamaha AC5M guitar and tried different versions of Elixir with different tunings. None of them really worked out. I measured the string heights and it seemed perfect, but the tension always felt too much. I was about to take the guitar to a luthier. Then, I decided to try Santa Cruz Parabolic Low Tension as a last resort. It worked. Especially the wounded strings have noticably lower tension. The first and second strings feel like regular 10s - 11s.
I don't know if it will last as long as Elixirs, but the guitar feels just right.

In terms of sound and feel, they are just like an uncoated string. I must admit that it's been a long time since I have last heard that finger squeak. I can't say that I like it, especially on an electrified acoustic, but you get used to it.

Excellentes cordes !
goodbear 07.07.2022
Ces cordes n’ont rien à voir avec tout ce que j’ai pu tester en sets acoustiques , toutes marques confondues. Leur touché est presque déroutant au début.. elles sont à la fois souples, douces et ont la consistance d’un fort tirant ! Mais c’est bien au niveau des sonorités qu’elles sont le plus bluffantes : les aigus, les mediums et les graves, tout est parfaitement dynamique et équilibré. Le sustain est incroyable et les notes parfaitement définies. Montées sur une acoustique de bonne facture, la différence avec d’autres marques bien connues est notoire. Assurément une réussite. Essayez, vous ne serez sûrement pas déçu.
Le seul hic reste le prix… c’est quand même assez cher, pas accessible pour beaucoup, et c’est regrettable parce que l’excellence devrait être à la portée de tous.

Toller Vintage Sound!
Simsocke 13.09.2022
Am liebsten würde ich die hohen Saiten von Santa Cruz mit den tiefen Saiten von Elixir mischen. Die Handhabung beim Saitenwechsel war perfekt. Der Sound der hohen Saiten ist weltklasse, so hat man seine Gitarre noch nicht gehört. Die tiefen Saiten klingen eher "vintage", also fundamental, bringen den holzigeren Klang der Gitarre heraus.

Natürlich sehr teuer, haben aber ähnlich lange, wenn nicht länger als die Elixir gehalten. Ich stehe persönlich auf einen modernen Klang, aber ich denke fürs Flatpicking auf einer Dreadnaught gibt es nicht besseres als die Medium von Santa Cruz.
