Product Description:
Experience unparalleled tone and performance with Santa Cruz Parabolic Tension Acoustic Guitar Strings, Mid Tension (13-56). From the revered Santa Cruz Guitar Company, pioneers in lutherie since 1976, comes a string set meticulously engineered to unlock your instrument's fullest acoustic potential.
This Mid Tension set, featuring a precise 13-56 gauge, is specifically recommended for dreadnought models, where it delivers a robust, balanced, and articulate voice. For players with smaller-bodied guitars (OOO, OM, H, F Models) who prefer Mid Tension, a guitar setup is recommended to accommodate the added tension.
The secret to these strings' exceptional clarity and balanced tonal response lies in Santa Cruz's innovative "Parabolic Tension" design. This is not just about gauge; it's about putting the exact tension on each individual string, ensuring optimal relative volume (EQ) across the entire set. Crafted from premium Phosphor Bronze wound over a Hex Core, these strings produce a rich, warm, and vibrant sound that truly complements the complex overtones and sustain SCGC guitars are known for.
Engineered with state-of-the-art metallurgy and a micro-coating, these strings offer exceptional longevity and consistent tone by preventing corrosive moisture from reaching the nickel and lead-free core. With a precisely calculated total tension of 176.7 lbs, this set provides powerful projection and a commanding presence. Elevate your playing experience and bring out the true voice of your guitar with Santa Cruz Parabolic Tension Mid Tension strings.
