Adamas 5300NU-M 4string ACOUSTIC BASS NUOVA COATED

The legendary Adamas Phosphor Bronze strings, now available Nuova Coated
The Adamas Nuova coating is not comparable to other manufacturers' traditional coatings, the strings feel almost as uncoated, but hold 3-5 times longer.

The legendary Adamas phosphor bronze strings are among the most famous acoustic guitar strings in the world. As ancestor of the Adamas string, the National Musical String Company (NMSC), which was founded in 1898, became known world-wide through its "Black Diamond" brand. In May 1980 the Trademark was recorded for the Composite Gauging, one of the special characteristics of the ADAMAS strings.

The strings are completely different from other manufacturers. It is striking that ADAMAS strings have developed their own strength gradation. The aim is to achieve a more homogenous feeling of strength under the fingertips. For the string core and the spinning material have identical diameters. These two strings feel "different" when frettes, they now resemble each other very much in gripping and vibrating behavior. They oscillate more uniformly and with greater amplitude. They do not sound as different as with many other string producers. It is definitely striking that these strings swing out with "more glowing" sustain than other strings.
Overall, the set feels "more homogeneous" among the fingers.
