• New long-life MJC Ironworks Strings for guitar & bass coming!

  

  2020/11/07

  ■MJC Ironworks
  
  We have started handling MJC Ironworks Strings, which produce pure sounds and also come with anti-oxidation coating.
  RN PROTECTS is used to form a very thin rust preventive film at the molecular level. It is applied as a vapor at room temperature and adheres to the metal surface of the strings to form a thin film. It is used not only on the wrap wire but also on the core wire and plain strings to protect the entire string set from rust caused by moisture. The thin film does not affect the sound characteristics of the metal strings, and provides the same pure sound as uncoated strings.
  The lineup includes 4 types of acoustic strings, 6 types of electric strings, and 4-7 string bass strings, 3 gauges each of nickel and stainless steel for a total of 24 types. Not only the high-quality strings themselves, but also the tin can they come in makes the long-life strings attractive in appearance.
  
  -Scheduled to be released around November 21, 2020-
