A: Yes great strings / phopho coating prevents rusting.

**Q: Are the strings soft enough for finger plucking or strumming without plectrum?**
A: For finger plucking nylon string is the ideal, but you can do with this one also.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality string
*by A***K on 22 September 2025*

Quality of string is quite good. Justifies price

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ These strings ring clean.
*by R***Y on 15 September 2025*

Rings clean and louder.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's not recommended for beginners. Use only if you have 1-2 years of experience
*by M***P on 18 May 2025*

Nice strings. The colour is kindof reddish yellow rather than pure gold colour... Sounds fresh. Go for it if you have bit of experience cuz these put a little bit pressure on the finger .. if your beginner go for the green or the orage packet with low gauge... Otherwise good for both fingerstyle and strum ... It's has good value for money but tax is quite concerning... It feels a bit tight than usual strings that comes with new guitars
