Description

The .050 to .105 medium gauge2676 Blue Steel Bass Guitar StringsfromDean Markleyare made of stainless steel, making them stronger than normal nickel-steel strings. Each guitar string is wrapped at the end with nylon thread to keep its outer winding from unraveling. During production, Blue Steel strings are cryogenically frozen down to -320F with a blast of liquid nitrogen in order to tighten the molecules, minimizing microscopic gaps. This process is designed to create a guitar string more consistent, more durable, and that stays in tune longer than conventional strings. The treatment also results in greater sustain and louder, more versatile tone.
