Item #: BSBSAA-45100-4-35

BlackSmith Bass AAOT Coated Stainless Steel, 35"

BlackSmith strings impress especially with the high quality of their coating.

BlackSmith coats the entire string and not (like most other manufacturers) only the winding wire, which successfully prevents deposits of dirt between the grooves of the winding and thus guarantees a much longer durability compared to other strings. There are two different types of coating, which the manufacturer calls AOT and AAOT, and they differ mainly in the thickness of the coating. The individual advantages of the two types of coating listed below.

In addition to the coating, the non-wrapped strings of the AOT and AAOT sets undergo a special cold treatment called "Sub Zero", which gives these strings a significant advantage in tensile strength.

AOT coating:

• Significantly longer durability than non-coated strings.
• Same feel as non-coated strings.
• Balanced sound.
• Less fretting noise.
• Less fret wear.
• Durable coating.
• Holds tuning extremely quickly after stringing.
• Perfect tuning stability.
• Patented vacuum packaging (no risk of corrosion).
• Cold treatment "Sub Zero" - Significant advantage in tear resistance.

    
AAOT coating (Advanced Anti Oxidation Technology Micro Carbon Shield).

• Extra long durability (even longer than AOT strings).
• Sounds like "broken-in" strings right from the start.
• Same playing feel as non-coated strings.
• Balanced sound.
• Little fretting noise.
• Hardly any fret wear.
• Durable coating.
• Perfect tuning stability right after stringing.
• Patented vacuum packaging (no risk of corrosion).
• Cold treatment "Sub Zero" - Significant advantage in tear resistance.
