Medium gauge Argentine strings usually sound best on long scale Selmer style guitars (670mm or longer) with lower action or short scale guitars (640mm).
Most Selmer style tailpieces will take both loop end or ball end strings. There is no difference in sound or playability between the two.

My Favorite So Far..
Pros: Great Tone & Feel
Cons: G string wears out easily
I've tried most of the Gypsy string brands, but so far none of them compare to how great the Argentines sound and feel. The only problem I have with the Argentines, is the G string gets pitted very easily. I recommend buying extra G strings, that's it. For every set I use, I'll need 3 "G" strings, before I change the whole set again. Maybe I play the G string too much...
