Pierre Bensusan "Dealing with strings has generally been for me a source of compromise and often frustration. For more than 30 years, I have been waiting for the right medium, embracing top quality but also longevity, fluidity, touch and beauty of-sound. I came across Wyres Strings and found the answers to all my concerns. These strings are just phenomenal, they are handmade, sound extremely well, feel great under the fingers, allow for an extensive use of their sustain to "work" the touch, the tone and the history of the note, they do not break and, icing on the cake, thanks to a very subtle coating which doesn't not take any harmonics away, they last for ever ! I feel completely relieved and will always remain really impressed with this performance. Wyres Strings surpass any other brand on the market today! I am proud and honored to collaborate to a Signature set with Nick Walton and his company. A dream came true. "   About Wyres Wyres Strings began from humble beginnings. Our philosophy has always been to test, develop and make the best musical strings possible. Naturally as musicians, we are exceptionally discerning and try to employ our most creative skills to develop great products.   Very often musicians will be invited into the factory to test strings and give us real time feedback. In technical areas unfamiliar to us we do consult engineers, chemists and even metallurgists for advice and we try to incorporate new ideas into our production.   Our 1st generation of P.T.F.E. (polymer tetra-fluoro-ethylene) coated strings is a prime example of one of these innovations which we debuted at the NAMM 1997 Show in Anaheim, California. We have continued improving on our P.T.F.E. coated string process and are today offering a 3rd generation P.T.F.E. coating.   Wyres Strings are currently manufactured in the USA and we are one of the few companies to actually manufacture their own strings. In the near future, Wyres Strings will also be manufactured in Canada.     Pierre Bensusan's signature set of Wyres Strings  STRING GAUGES: E .013, B .017, G .024, D .032, A .042, E .056.     This Listing is for 1 x Set Wyres Professional  Handmade Pierre Bensusan 13 - 56 DADGAD Tuning Signature Set of PTFE Coated ACOUSTIC Guitar Strings
