These strings are engineered with a patented NANOWEB coating for an ultra-smooth surface, producing a sound that resonates with clarity and rich overtones.

The NYXL1046 Light strings come with a nickel-plated steel wrap wire over a hex-core wire, which lends tight, punchy bass tones with exceptional clarity and definition.

Chords take on a full, resonant quality, while lead lines soar above the accompaniment.
