Novi i Dean Markley „Blackhawk“ su izrađeni sa visokim procentom ugljenika u niklovanim čeličnim jezgrima obezbeđujući snagu i neuporedivu stabilnost. Na njima je prisutna mikro-tanka presvlaka zbog koje traju i do četiri puta duže od običnih a omogućavajući sve vreme kvalitetan štim. Ovaj novi projekat je realizovan na novim naprednim Dean Markley mašinama koje omogućavaju savremeni način stavljanja presvlake. Teško je poverovati, a kamoli videti, da su ove žice obložene jer se koriste digitalni mikrometri za merenje koji drastično smanjuju debljinu. Proizvodnja ovih a je u SAD-u.
Blackhawk 80/20 Bronze – Bring the brass with 80% copper and 20% zinc. These strings make a bold statement with a crisp, deep tone that’s ideal for recording.
Blackhawk Phosphor Bronze – The hawk returns to nest with this warm, bright and well-balanced tone. The 92% copper and 8% tin composition provide excellent intonation and tone life.
Blackhawk Coated Electric strings round out the series with sophistication. The wound string has a hexagonal core made of high-carbon steel, providing superior strength and unparalleled pitch stability. The wire wraps are uniquely engineered on proprietary machinery with advanced wire-coating technology. It’s hard to believe, let alone see, that these strings are coated when a digital micrometer is used to measure the drastically reduced thickness. Like a beautiful bird soaring through the wild, the natural tones of Blackhawk Coated Electric strings are unrepressed.
