Papa Het’s brand - new hardwired Master Core signature string sets were co - developed with Metallica’s James Hetfield in the past decade to perfectly meet his high - standard performance needs. This set features James’s favorite 11 - 50 gauge combination. It uses thicker Paradigm core wire and plasma - enhanced nickel - plated steel wrap wire, delivering a heavier sound with excellent pitch stability, ideal for James’s aggressive playing style. The plain strings are made of Paradigm core wire with brass RPS reinforcement at the ball end, which adds strength and tuning stability. These limited - edition sets come in a durable tin box with custom graphics designed by James himself. The tin box is not only compact but also highly collectable, and it contains three signature string packs. Features include: a pack of 3, a thicker sound, added pitch stability, a heavier core - to - wrap ratio, a never - before - offered gauge combination, wound strings with Paradigm plasma - enhanced nickel - plated steel around ultra - high strength tin - plated steel hex cores, and gauges of .011, .014, .018, .028, .038, .050.




Using these guitar strings is easy. First, remove your old strings from the guitar. Then, start threading the new strings through the bridge and the tuning pegs. Make sure to keep the correct gauge order as listed: .011, .014, .018, .028, .038, .050. Tune each string to the right pitch. You'll notice a heavier and more stable sound right away. When it comes to maintenance, after each use, wipe the strings with a clean cloth to remove dirt and sweat. This will help keep the pitch stable and extend the life of the strings. Also, store the strings in the provided tin box when not in use. It's durable and protects the strings from damage. Just be careful not to bend the strings too sharply during installation, as this could break them.
