Manufacturer's ID: STRGH-OPT-8L

What we say:

Strandberg have created their own special strings as direct replacements for your prized Strandberg guitar. These are 8 string sets with the thinnest string being a gauge 9. Strandberg have researched, tested strings and spoken to Strandberg users to get important feedback about what they need from strings. These strings are the result and they feel fantastic! They feel perfect for the instrument and we wouldn't expect anything less from Strandberg.

This pack contains 5 sets of strings.

Specification

We noticed after having our guitars in trade shows, where they would get extensive play and handling by various people, that with conventional strings, in particular the 8th string of our 8-string demo guitars would go completely dead like a piece of yarn after only a few days of play. We asked around among 8-string guitarists, and they said that this is completely natural and expected.

Refusing to accept this, we set about on an R&D project together with our partner GHS Strings, and after extensive testing we came up with a combination of two wraps of different alloys (stainless steel/nickel) that provides not only longer life, but better tone and tuning stability. Our .084″ string is made from this, while the remaining strings are made nickel plated steel.
