Savarez Argentine strings are the industry standard for Gypsy Jazz, specifically designed for Selmer-Maccaferri style guitars. The Light (1510) set with Loop Ends features the following specifications:
Angkor Music recommend and fit these strings to many Gypsy Jazz guitars in our Melbourne workshop for their Clear punch sound.
Technical Specifications
- Gauges: .011, .015, .023 (wound), .029, .037, .046 (Note: Standard "Light" sets typically end in .046,
- Core: Steel
- Winding: Silver-plated copper
- Ending: Loop End (designed for traditional tailpieces found on Gypsy Jazz guitars).
Key Features
- The "New Concept": Modern manufacturing has improved the durability and smoothness of the winding compared to the vintage strings used by Django Reinhardt, while retaining the signature "crunch" and projection.
- Acoustic Properties: These strings provide a brilliant, clear, and powerful tone necessary for the percussive "la pompe" rhythm style and fast lead runs.
- Compatibility: Loop ends are specifically for "Petit Bouche" (oval hole) or "Grand Bouche" (D-hole) guitars. If your guitar uses a standard bridge pin system, you will need the Ball End (1510MF) version instead.
