The GHS Carlos Santana Signature strings feature Big Core technology with a bigger core wound with highest-quality nickel, paired with slightly thicker plain strings for durability and tone retention. All sets include half-gauges on the vulnerable B and high-E strings prone to bending wear. The strings deliver a warm, full tone with very long life, eliminating unwanted natural harmonics at high gain and offering substantial presence with smooth, round top-end character. Introduced to Santana by technician Rene Martinez, they remain his choice.
