The Hannabach 825 LT Pure Gold is the low tension set in Hannabach's gold-plated line. The basses are plated with 24-karat gold rather than silver, which gives them a warmer, rounder, more mellow voice and makes them resistant to tarnish from sweat, so they keep their tone far longer than silver-plated basses. The trebles are precision round clear nylon. Low tension keeps the feel soft and gentle, a good combination for bright guitars and for players who want warmth without effort.
Hannabach has made strings in Germany since 1869 and is known above all for the quality and consistency of its basses; every set is made by hand in small batches. The 825 MT is the medium tension version.
