I like the sound of Willie Nelson's guitar. I don't have a Martin classical with a hole worn thru it,but that's besid the point. I know he uses nylon strings with ball ends.I'm all thumbs when it comes to tying nylon strings together. I can tie tiny line to a tiny fishing fly or lure,but I can't tie nylon strings very good.From picures I've seen of his brand of strings,they look to be a pretty good set. Any ideas on what brand he uses?
There is a good article here about his guitar:

And... according to an ad I found...
Dean Markley Ball End Nylon Classical Guitar Strings
Quick and easy to put on, quick to change, sound great and they're the only strings Willie Nelson will use

So... I guess they are Dean Markley's

Cool,thanks guys. My next guitar will most likely be a small bodied classical.
Albeit I love the guy...and actually have met him upon occasion...I've NEVER heard that guitar played anywhere's near tuned!
