Premium American Craftsmanship
Crafted with meticulous precision in Akron, Ohio USA, each string is expertly wound using the revolutionary SIT LevelWrap™ formula. This innovative technique ensures that the cover wrap maintains an exact tension throughout the entire string-making process, guaranteeing optimal playability and tonal consistency.
Balanced, Punchy Tone for Any Style
The Power Wound strings feature a cover wrap that is 8% nickel-plated steel, providing a smooth feel while enhancing longevity and contributing to a distinctive punchy tone without losing any warmth. Beneath the cover wrap lies a high-carbon steel hex core, which forms the backbone of the string. This high-quality core further enhances stability, allowing the strings to withstand the rigors of heavy playing while delivering a powerful low end that resonates with depth and authority.
