I thought changing strings before every show was pretty bad to do since the strings don't have time to stretch and stay in tune, and you would have to be tuning the guitar ever 10 minutes from playing it.[</blockquote><br><br>If we have a rehersal before the show I'll put the new ones on for rehersal and then leave them on for the show. If there's no rehersal I'll put them on ahead of time, stretch them, and then play for about a half hour or so until they settle in. You're right though, you don't want to go on stage with strings that aren't settled in.]]></content:encoded>

It's something that most pros that I have encountered do (or have their roadie do for them). They change the strings a few hours before the show, then play for a few minutes, usually something with lots of bends and aggressive strumming, re-tune and park the guitar on a stand until just before show time. <br>The a quick re-tune before the show, and away you go.<br><br>Of course, my experience is based on steel strings. Nylon/gut players may do things differently.]]></content:encoded>

I have a couple of sets here and I'll use them on my backup guitars as and when, but I wouldn't let them near my main concert guitar because they simply don't sound that great. Yes, I have tried D'Addario strings on my main guitar.<br><br>I was turned on to Hannabach classical strings by the guitar guys at Chappell of Bond Street, and I'd recommend them to anybody. I notice John Williams uses them too, although he uses the expensive ones and mixes treble and bass strings from their different sets. I can't afford to do that.<br><br><br>A :-)]]></content:encoded>
