BlackSmith's western guitar strings are made from the finest materials and manufactured using advanced automatic power-assisted winding equipment. American bronze and steel ensure that you get a durable string with good sustain and a clean tone. Blacksmith's computer-controlled winding technology gives the strings a very even winding and an even tension over the entire length of the string. The result is a string that is in tune stable, that intonates well and feels comfortable. The strings that are not wrapped are Sub-Zero treated, which gives a softer feel and a more uniform playing feeling across the strings.
Blacksmith's phosphor bronze strings are for those who are looking for a standard quality string that gives a good sound and keeps the sound for a long time. Phosphor bronze is the preferred alloy for western guitar strings and is valued for having a warmer sound and longer durability than strings made from 80/20 bronze.
The Micro Carbon Shield coating, AAOT, counteracts oxidation and dirt build-up on the strings and results in a string that lasts longer than an uncoated string. The coating acts as a physical barrier on the string that protects it from external and harmful influences - without affecting the overall playing feel.
The strings are individually wrapped in vacuum-sealed packages that prevent oxidation during transport and storage.
