Cobalt braided strings
Cobalt
— a material used primarily in advanced electric guitar strings. Compared to the other popular braid material, nickel (see related paragraph), cobalt has better magnetic properties, which positively affects the quality of pickups, the level of the output signal, and sometimes even the frequency response. In addition, cobalt is not so quickly erased and lasts longer. Its only drawback, in fact, is its relatively high cost.Show
