What’s better than a classic? A classic made even better. What, you don’t think that’s possible? Well then let me present to you Exhibit “A”—our Broadway Classic Light Gauge set.
Around the shop, we call this one the “Big Gulp”. It get’s it’s name because its a 7 string 11 gauge set (7 – Eleven) that is oh so refreshing thanks to the balanced tension.
Here we’ve got our Balanced .0095s, otherwise known as our Balanced Super Light Plus Gauge strings. Yes, we know that name is a mouthful, but the idea is a pretty easy pill to swallow…
So these might look like a typical set of 9s (or Super Lights, or Extra Lights—everyone seems to call ‘em something different…), but trust me, they’re not.
