“What’s the difference between NANOWEB® and POLYWEB® coatings?

The difference between our coating ‘flavors’ is found in the tone and feel of the strings. NanoWeb® coated strings sound and feel like uncoated strings – they are bright and lively, and the coating is so micro thin that you can barely tell it’s there.

PolyWeb® coated strings have a balanced tone and smooth response – they sound like strings that have been ‘played in’. In addition, PolyWeb® coated strings feel comfortably smooth and help reduce finger squeak.”
