Description
A unique look and a strong, consistent sound. Until now, it was necessary to increase a string’s gauge to reach lower frequencies. But increasing the string’s diameter also increases the internal dampening. That makes the string less bright, less responsive and more muffled:the thicker the string, the duller the sound. Our revolutionary new approach —never introduced before us— changes the specific weight of the material, increasing it progressively to leave the gauges almost unchanged as possible is.
The result is amazing: the instrument sounds brighter and with a very fast attack, more powerful and more responsive through the entire range of the fretboard. The strings also maintain their intonation better (because thicker strings need to be fretted harder, pulling them farther out of tune).
The basses, at the contrary, are designed with a short sustain and with more percussive effect: this is very suitable for the rasgueado style.
THE GRANATO SERIES sets provide superior performance over traditional Flamenco strings for musicians who love clear, sharp sounds and powerful voicing across the full scale of the instrument.
Why are there different shades of red?
In the Red Series manufacturing process we use different percentages of metal powder to optimize the performance of each string within the set. Because of this, the color varies slightly from time to time. This is not a production problem. This is how each string produces the sound you expect!
Attention:
Red Series strings need to be finger stretched in a gentle way. Not too much. Tuning settles in 2-3 days.
