Santa Cruz Parabolic Tension Strings - DADGAD (Low Tension)

I use the DADGAD low tensions on my Martin short scale dreadnought and the sustain is amazing. The Martin is 4 1/4" deep so it has good base and the Santa Cruz make it even better. I just tweak the 4th string from F (Dm tuning) to F# (Open D) to G (DADGAD). Easy peasy. ------------------------ I use the low tension (standard scale) on my other short scale guitars and the lower tension/higher gauge really works well. The low tensions are an excellent match for the Taylor GS mini. I'd like to buy more but they are so expensive I have to limit myself

I've never tried this style of guitar strings before, and I love them!

Great strings! They have great tone and don’t wear as quickly as other strings. They’ve become my favorite strings, especially the DADGAD low tension. Super for alternate tunings.
