Little Dragon Posted October 27, 2023 Author Share Posted October 27, 2023 New strings. Top winding nickel over a stainless winding. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernaut Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Like GHS Bassics and Roto Swing Nickels. It's just fancy marketing guff. I haven't tried them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baloney Balderdash Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 (edited) Really interesting. A shame they so far only come in .105 to .045 gauge though, I would love to try a balanced .095 to .040 set of these strings. And no they are not the same as the GHS Bassics and Roto Swing strings, those are nickel thread wound around a steel core, just as any other nickel-plated roundwound strings, these got steel thread wound around a steel core, just like a regular stainless steel roundwound string, but then an additional wrap of nickel thread on top of that, which to my knowledge have not ever been done before (at least not commercially). Making them a quite unique and new fusion/crossover/combination between/of stainless steel and nickel-plated roundwound strings. Perhaps even making it possible to get the stainless steel sound, but without the excessive fret wear (though this is a guess, as I haven't actually tried these strings myself, yet).

fretmeister Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 I'm normally a sucker from trying any new string marketing nonsense, but my nickel allergy rules these out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Dragon Posted November 10, 2023 Author Share Posted November 10, 2023 Arrived from Amazon US earlier than estimated, put them on my Retrovibe Vantage and took that to rehearsal tonight. Liked the Dunlop Superbright that they replace but may just have found my new favourite strings. Lets hope they keep their sound for a nice long time, we'll see.
