RED SERIES sets provide superior performance over traditional strings for musicians who love clear, sharp sounds and powerful voicing across the full scale of the instrument. You never heard a sound like this before, simply because before it did not exist.
NEWS!! IMPROVED RED SERIES VERSION

- Surface: slightly rough; this texture has eliminated the squeak that sometime hapPen with the Nylguts.
- Elasticity/Elongation: like the common white Nylgut!
- Performances: better than the first elastic version! They do not break under stretching. fast and stable tuning!
- Intonation: accurate past the 12th fret
