Low 11th string with twang.

I tried a D'Addario classical guitar sixth string, .044 or .043 tuned to a low B in the Necati tuning and it was fantastic. I had been looking for a string that would twang instead of thud tuned down that low. It's from the set EJ45LP PRO ARTE series, Normal tension classical guitar, LP COMPOSITES. I'm not sure but I think it's not nylon but some kind of polyester core. In any case it has as lot more sustain than anything else I've tried for that tuning.
