Yeah, that's right. Ernie Ball is releasing guitar strings coated with titanium. These strings for acoustic guitars are made by taking EB's popular Slinky acoustic guitar strings and putting an ultra-thin coating of titanium around each one.
Titanium-coated guitar strings? Are you serious? In a completely geeky way, I think that is one of the coolest things I've ever heard. If Superman played guitar, these are the strings he'd wail on. Mostly because they're probably the only strings that could stand up to his super-powerful picking.
Ernie Ball is calling this patented process Titanium RPS Technology. EB claims it makes the strings more resistant to rust and dirt so they sound better, longer. They also claim these titanium Slinky Acoustic strings are stronger and longer-lasting than other coated and uncoated strings on the market.
By the way, this "Music Gear Spotlight" is something I've been meaning to do around here for a while and simply haven't had the time to start, but NO MORE! From now one whenever I see a cool—or at least eyebrow-raising—piece of music gear, I'm going to share it. Cause that's what friends do; they share. And we're all friends around here, right?
