The iconic Adamas Phosphor Bronze strings are now available with a Nuova coating on a round core. These are high-quality strings that are slowly wound. The round core instead of the hexagonal steel wire offers greater durability and a more balanced and harmonic sound. The same thickness steel wires provide lower string tension for very comfortable play. The round strings should not be cut BEFORE tuning, otherwise the coating will loosen and the string will become unusable. They are available only in sets - individual strings are not available.
