Carlos Santana Big Core Electric Guitar Strings

Description:
Carlos Santana was introduced to Big Core Strings by his Guitar Technician, Rene Martinez. He has continued to use them and the result is beautifully realized in his new Signature Series. Rene Martinez has been one of the USA's leading experts in guitar maintenance and repair since 1972. Rene worked at Dallas Texas' famous Charley's Guitar Shop From 1976 through 1985.

Big Core Custom Light Gauge
BCCL .0095 .0115 .016 .028 .038 .048

The reason the strings are called Big Core is because they start with a much larger core wire and then wrap around it. This offers a nice fat string that brings heavy tone and a smooth feel. Also the gauges are slightly different than anything else we offered. All sets start with half gauges (.0095, .0105) and go up from there. This gauging is of course, caused by the core wire ratio.

If you are looking to get Carlos's incredible tone... These will at least help you on your way!

All of Kerly Music strings are seasoned through a patented metal tempering process that exposes them to minus 320F and plus 350F for 24 hours. Our treatment strengthens the string at the molecular level, ads tonal crispness, increases durability and dramatically resists corrosive elements that reduce the life and tone of your strings. Tuning is less frequent, and a smoother surface feel is created with stellar bendability.

Our CYCLECOAT™ process uses repetitive Hot/Cold, Hot/Cold, Hot/Cold cycles that close up the microcracks that cause tonal loss and premature breakage. It’s the microcracks in normal strings that allow a string to go dead or break quickly. We close up the cracks and our strings counteract sweat, corrosion and quick breakage.

Strings are all about metal, the type and how it interacts with your fingers. Normal strings are just that, normal. You can expect them to sound good right out of the package, but after a limited amount of time they usually lose their sound quality and some even break with hardly picking them a hundred times. Coated strings use expensive coatings that try to extend the sound quality of a string. This process is debated by many and coatings do not make a string "feel real" or last longer regarding to breakage.


There are Cryogenic strings out there, which are defined by exposing the metal to extremely cold temperatures. Standard cryogenics does not show 100% proven scientific results. The only way to ensure more durability and extra wear resistance is to temper metal between both Hot and Cold. It’s the repetitive expansion and contraction of the metal, due to both temperatures, that change its structure giving it the added benefits.


Kerly strings are tempered strings. Exposing them to minus 320F and plus 350F for 24 hours changes the way they sound, feel and last. Metal tempering has been used for centuries to improve the durability and wear resistance of metals. With Kerly music, You can be assured that you are playing strings with an exclusive metal tempering process used to capture the unique sound and durability of Kerly Music Strings.
