Product Description:
Unleash the authentic voice of your Jazz Manouche guitar with John Pearse 2800 Nuages Guitar Strings. This "Light" tension set (.010-.045) is meticulously engineered to provide the effortless playability and distinctive tone essential for Gypsy Jazz and other acoustic jazz styles. The ultra-light gauges allow for incredibly fast runs, delicate phrasing, and a responsive feel that traditional Manouche players demand.
At the core of the wound strings lies an innovative Silk Wrapped round steel core, which is then expertly wound with Silver Plated Copper. This unique construction is key to the "Nuages" sound, delivering a mellow, smoky, and warm tone that is rich in harmonics without harsh overtones. The silk wrap also significantly reduces finger noise and friction, ensuring a remarkably smooth feel under your fingers and allowing your technique to shine through with crystal clarity. This combination provides a distinct sonic signature that perfectly complements the percussive attack and sustained lyricism characteristic of Manouche guitar.
The plain strings, 1st E (.010) and 2nd B (.014), are crafted from Silvered Steel, offering a clear, bright, and articulate treble response that balances beautifully with the warmth of the wound strings. The round wound design ensures excellent intonation and a familiar tactile experience for expressive playing.
Proudly manufactured by John Pearse, a name synonymous with quality and innovation in string making, these 2800 Nuages strings are made in the USA, guaranteeing consistent performance and durability. Transform your Manouche guitar's voice and experience the unparalleled feel of strings designed specifically for your genre.
