I've had these strings on a couple of different guitars now and I love them. I'm not a classical guitarist, just want the tone of nylon strings occasionally. The problem with that is it requires you to purchase a new guitar and most classical guitars have wide thick necks. These ball-end nylons solve that problem. Play on the necks you're used to and make use of one of those extra guitars you've got laying around the house collecting dust. It's a nice alternative sound. You may have to file 1 or 2 nut slots just a bit wider, but it's not a big deal.
