Technical Details

The Hanago HCS-160 string set consists of phosphor bronze strings with a special anti-rust coating. This choice of material not only ensures a warm and full sound but also protects the strings from environmental influences. The precisely graded gauges are optimally matched to the requirements of Hanago hand-fiddles:

1st & 2nd strings: 0.010 inches
3rd & 4th strings: 0.012 inches
5th & 6th strings: 0.015 inches
7th & 8th strings: 0.023 inches
9th & 10th strings: 0.030 inches
11th & 12th strings: 0.032 inches
13th & 14th strings: 0.039 inches
15th & 16th strings: 0.047 inches

This gradual gauge progression ensures a harmonious tonal balance across the instrument’s entire range. The thinner gauges of the high strings guarantee a clear response, while the thicker bass strings provide a powerful foundation. The anti-rust-coated phosphor bronze construction reduces unwanted noise, offers comfortable playability, and significantly extends the strings’ lifespan.
