Don't hear many Major 7 chords played these days … love the sound. There's an old song I used to sing at church once in awhile – called In Love For Me from of an old musical by Jimmy and Carol Owens called The Witness. EM7 to AM7 … in several positions up and down the neck … never failed to make people weepy … and me …
If you want the same effet of ball ends with regular classical strings, you can use strings ties!
I use them on my guitar, the holes in the bridge have widened over time, and I've lost a little angle behind the nut…
The break angle claim is effectively bollox in regard to tone and tying strings. The angle change on a well-fitted tied string on an undamaged bridge and saddle compared to attaching with a ball end makes negligible difference to the tonal of volume response. This angle is more affected by wear over time to the saddle-side exit point of the hole in the tie block that the string passes through. Additionally the way many balls are attached causes a stiffening of the last centimeter or more og the string and this can throw out saddle compensation causing intonation changes.
The same bogus claim in regard to ball ends vs ties is frequently made to promote aftermarket beads that allow users to create their own ball-ends. The extra mass these beads introduce to the bridge assembly likely causes a change in response that far outweighs the impact of a change in string trajectory amounting to less than a degree or two.
But if you can't manage to tie a string efficiently or correctly, then by all means,use ball ended ones. In my experience classical ball ends are almost universally inferior in quality to standard sets by reputable makers, although these specialist sets may be an exception. You may also want to avoid lace up shoes and traditional neck ties without elastic collars.
Hi my niec has got 3 steel and three nylon on her student guitar which pack would you suggest to buy that have all 6 in a pack
Thank you
Ball End Nylon strings make restringing the Guitar a Snap & it also allows the strings to come out at a steeper angle over the saddle so that there's more downward pressure.
Absolutely wonderful review! I have to ask, what song did you play in the middle (at around 6:42), it was beautiful!
ALAN ROY – TKS FOR THE LOVED THING – I CAN NOT GET´M AROUND HERE – I AM GOING TO MANCHESTER, WITHIN COUPLE OF MONTHS THEREFORE – GONNA PURCHASE IT WHNE I AM AROUND – HAVE GOOD ONE – REGGIE SENIOR!!!!!

Hey Alan,
Thank you for the review, Im looking around to decide on which to get out of the 4 models for my ovation.
EJ32, EJ32C, EJ33 and EJ34.
So could you please do a comparison between the 80/20 Bronze and the Silver Plated Copper, also a comparison between Clear and Black Nylon Trebles?
Im looking for the most mellow and gentle sound.
Bought same guitar after you excellent review
The strings it came with I think are carbon
And it sounds wonderful
Many thanks
