NEW Kovar Flexible Core strings

They're made for the player who demands precision and power in equal measure. So go ahead, dig in deep - these strings can take it.
Kovar SP Core strings
These strings, crafted with standard, high-tensile Superior Performance SP core wire, are the world's first Kovar strings. They share the same benefits of Kovar wrap wire with a more traditional feel, still engineered with lower tension to enhance your technical prowess. Choose from a variety of gauges, including all-new extra light and 12-string sets.
Reasons you’ll love these strings
ULTRA COMFORTABLE TO PLAY | Kovar strings are easier to fret due to their lower tension, which allows you to play longer and faster and with more precision.
THEY LAST | Kovar strings are naturally corrosion resistant due to the composition of the metal which doesn’t react to the oils in your skin like other string materials. You can play them longer and still sound amazing without any coatings or treatments.
UNIQUE TONE | Kovar strings offer a unique tone that is brighter than Monel and warmer than Phosphor Bronze. If you’re looking for a unique tone that will set your music apart from the crowd, give Kovar a try.
SUPER RESPONSIVE & FREQUENCY-BALANCED | Kovar strings accentuate the natural tone of any instrument, and pairs exceptionally well with guitars featuring magnetic pickups.
