Gibson Humbucker Guitar Strings: Intended To Be More Alive And Easier For The Pick-Ups To Respond To
I've written articles labeling the Gibson electric guitar string "the best" actually; they really are my favorite electric guitar strings. Like I've said before, I've tried 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 is no discernible difference between the different brands of strings". I can understand this sentiment, yet I've come to understand several things regarding the manufacturing and the elements involved making the string do what it does.
I was a die-hard steel wrapped string guy ever since the early eighties starting with Bill Laurence steel wrap guitar strings. I moved to The Gibson "Live Wires" and fell in love with the punch and (feel and sound) consistency, not so much the gauge.
Later on, when the "Vintage Re-Issue" nickel wrapped string came out, I tried those and found that they felt smooth on my fingers. The strings tended to have a different response and sound which I thought was appealing.
I guess the nickel wrap with the plain steel strings made me really feel like my solos kicked in the high places. And, I switched to those. You know, I liked the way those strings sounded.
There's a nice decay and not too much spike compared to a shorter decay and higher spike like I felt with NPS ("Brite Wires"), yet there was a problem. The nickel cover was a really soft one, so I'd encounter fret wear immediately. And, the string would definitely lose tone.
The GIBSON HUMBUCKER strings are made to be more alive or easier for the pick-up to react to. The package says, "The only guitar string optimized for the humbucking pickup.
Gibson Humbucking guitar strings utilize a special composite core wire along with a specially formulated wrap wire. This design offers a unique magnetic formulation to create the most out of dual-coil high-output pickups".
I don't use high-output pick-ups; I use the Gibson '57 Classic" and "Classic Plus" pickups on my Gibson "Explorer". These strings felt good and the tone had a great blend and consistency between the wrapped and plain strings.
I simply put the strings on my guitars, the "Explorer" and the 56 "Les Paul "Jr. I forgot about it until I was on stage and rocking. I've been using the "Brite Wires" for the last couple of years.
So here I am, playing a show and noticed the tone. Plus, my fingers felt different smacking those wires. The rest of the night was fun and "in the moment". The next week I called Gil Pini at Gibson Gear in Elgin to ask him about these "bad boys" and he hipped me to the extra iron in those "kickin' rockers".
I do not have any "insider details" concerning the "Gibson Humbucker" electric guitar strings. I know they are sealed for protection from oxidization from the elements as all their (Gibson Gear) strings are.
These are my immediate reflections as a skilled performing musician, guitarist, and still... A fan!!
