The trebles are made of a high technological material, very different from nylon : different elasticity, higher density, further longevity thanks to the very specific cristallinity grade.
In fact we have been working on the following topics to guarantee the technological and acoustic qualities of this material to make it convenient for music strings :
Tensile strength,
Mastery of the elasticity and elongation,
Control of the geometrical regularity of the diameter for a perfect intonation.
Characteristics - Technology:
The KF ALLIANCE fibre has the same density and elongation properties as gut.
Its density is higher than the polyamide fibres.
The KF ALLIANCE strings are thinner than the nylon ones. They can resist a 35kg tension (harp).
The low internal frictions between the molecules increase the durability of the string beside a sustained sound.
Acoustics properties: Bright tone and clean sound, Richness of sound, Very extensive possibilities,
Incomparable power and projection of the sound, An even greater sustained sound, Very clear sound on the high and very high positions.
Basses: Round silver wound polished ALLIANCE/HT CLASSIC basses. The string remains flexible thanks to the round winding. The polishing eliminates the left hand squeak and offers a smooth surface to the touch while keeping the former acoustic characteristics. Thanks to a very special technology they keep the high level characteristics offered by the round wound strings. They still offer: a brilliance similar to the round wound strings, a rich, mellow and bright sound thanks to the metal used for winding.
