Description
The Galli Genius GR60 is the high tension nylon set, with trebles in Galli's clear nylon compound and Pro-Coated silver-plated basses. The nylon trebles are warm, clear, and well intonated, and high tension adds projection, sustain, and a firmer feel for concert guitars and players who want more volume. The Pro-Coated basses stay fresh-sounding longer than uncoated strings.
Galli has made strings in Naples, Italy, since 1890; the Genius line uses Pro-Coated silver-plated basses that resist sweat and corrosion for longer life. The GR65 is the normal tension version.
Galli Genius nylon strings are formulated using a new clear nylon compound. The musical results are superior volume, warmth, clarity and intonation over other traditional nylon strings - rounder focused trebles, deeper richer basses - concert strings applauded by discriminating professionals for their outstanding beauty and refinement of sound. The Genius nylon treble strings are clear, musical and have great projection. The third string is bright and focused, not tubby or weak. The basses possess a depth and richness that compliment cedar and spruce top guitars equally well. They are also less prone to noisy left hand shift squeaks. Overall, the entire set responds unusually fast to expressive changes in color and articulation. And once in tune, these strings stay in tune very well. Galli Genius Nylon treble sets come with bass sets featuring Galli's unique Pro-Coated polymer process, further assuring superior quality and richness of sound.String |

Several weeks ago I purchased a guitar built by master luthier Giacomo Guadagna. As is usual when optimizing a new instrument I began experimenting over the course of about three weeks with most of the usual top brands of strings most of which performed well enough. Not superlatively but acceptably well. Being Italian myself I began to develop the conviction that my new guitar had more to give with the right match and might even surpass its languid beauty of sound with strings produced in its country of origin. I was helped in this conviction by the knowledge that Giacomo was Sicilian but living in Florence and was probably well versed in the characteristics of the two leading Italian string manufacturers, Dogal (made in Venice)and Galli (made in Naples). Since I had run through testing with Dogal just satisfactorily it was but a logical step to treat Giacomo's wonderful guitar to Galli strings which, to my delight, were on sale at X Guitars. I ordered both normal tension and high tension nylon and also titanium and could hardly wait for their arrival. To make a long story a little shorter I settled on high tension nylon with a titanium third string. Confirming my hunch, not only was the improvement in sound and feel immediate but gradually increased on a daily basis while the strings settled in as Giacomo's guitar became acquainted, appreciative and elevated by a marriage that made a great guitar as exceptionally great as it could be. I am a happy guy!
I had bought a 1971 Conn C200 classical of shopgoodwill in good shape. It sounded great for a couple hours and then it sounded horrid. I tried all my favorite strings to no avail. Found a set of these cheap on ebay, put then on and the guitar sounded better. I like the feel of them too. The guitar has a solid spuce top and probably hadnt been play for years. But it sounded better and better over time. So these gallis work well on that guitar. I dont like the sound of the high E string and have been using a saverez the past couple set changes. Here a link if you care to here what the gallies sound like on the conn. All the videos with the conn had the gallis. The service with xguitars seems really good to so.
