These Gold Strings 10-46 are actually 24 carat gold plated for longer lasting, tarnish free playing. Maxima strings were originally made in Germany in small quantities to satisfy the most discriminating players and major artists worldwide. As a result, they have always in short supply and hard to find. They have not been made for some time, but now Optima Strings has started production again.
The main features of the Gold Strings 10-46 include:
I have often looked for the best strings I could find and thought I would never find anything better by this time. When I purchased the optima gold strings for electric guitar I found strings that I like more than others. This will however depend on what kind of guitar what style of playing and personal preference. I have since purchased bass and acoustic sets and in the near future will be testing these.
