Review title: Working well on my Martin Backpacker
Product review: The Backpacker guitar needs all the help it can get to avoid sounding too tinny and treble-y. I started researching what strings are best for adding warmth and balancing out an overly bright guitar. I came across the "silk and steel" type of string that several brands carry and ultimately decided to go with Ernie Ball's Earthwood series based on reviews and forum posts I read. I think they sound and play great. Another nice advantage is they exert less tension than your average string, which is great for the Backpacker since it's supposed to take extra light strings only. I don't think I'd recommend these strings for something like an all-mahogany guitar as it's already going to be pretty mellow and you'll probably just end up with a muddy sound, but for anything else that's sounding too cold or tinny, give these a try.
