Cleartone electric guitar strings are made with a metal core and nickel-plated steel windings, giving them a versatile sound with a clear presentation that doesn't lack dynamics and fits a variety of musical styles. Thanks to the "treated" finish, they not only last longer, retaining their natural attack even when played harder with a pick, and are more resistant to corrosion, but they also provide your guitar with up to 36% more volume over other "coated" strings, which Cleartone has not only had scientifically verified but patented.
