This is a new line of electric guitar string from the Gibson Guitar co. called Gibson Gear, Elgin, Illinois U.S.A. It’s new to me…
I’ve written articles calling the Gibson electric guitar string “the best” actually; they’re my favorite electric guitar strings. Like I’ve said before, “I’ve used most of the major string brands and I play all the time. Also, I know it’s been said time and again “that guitar strings have so much in common that there’s no discernable difference between the various brands of strings”. I can understand this sentiment, yet I’ve come to understand a few things regarding the manufacturing and the elements involved making the string do what it does.
Things like, cover to core ratio, (the gauge or diameter of the wire used for the strings). If you were to put a thicker core the string would seem to have a stiff feel, where if you’d use a thinner core wire the string would be feel loose and seem to bend more easily. Too much in either direction, and the string doesn’t work for anyone. The same for the alloys or types or metal used to make the string effects the sound and feel.

Randy California's Magical Guitar: 'Spirit' Drummer Ed Cassidy Remembers a Six ...
In a better world, like his close friend Jimi Hendrix, guitar great Randy California would be a household name. From the mid ‘60s until his tragic death, at age 45, in a 1997 in a swimming accident, California played (and often composed) some of the most transcendent music ever delivered on a six-string. Much of that music was recorded within the context of Spirit, one of the most sophisticated ensembles to emerge from rock’s psychedelic era. Formed in 1967 by California and his drummer-stepfather, Ed Cassidy, the original band also included jazz pianist John Locke and future rock mainstays Jay Ferguson and Mark Andes.
Cassidy’s story constitutes a phenomenal tale in its own right. As late as 2010, he was being hailed as “the
world’s oldest active drummer,” and at age 89, he purportedly continues to correspond with Spirit’s legions of fans. In truth, eclectic is hardly a sufficient word to describe the inventive blend of pop, rock, jazz and psychedelia that coursed through the four albums released by Spirit during the band’s initial incarnation in the late '60s. Evoking everyone from Iron Butterfly to The Kinks to vintage Pink Floyd, the group embodied the old adage about the whole being greater than the sum of its parts. In the following interview, conducted in 2005 and never-before-published, Cassidy talks about Spirit’s legacy and the brilliance of Randy California.
